Nicely acted dolphin adventure, not only for kids fun!, 20 December 2000
Author: vinnienh from Den Helder, Holland

It is largely due to the participation of handsome Luke Halpin that this film drew my attention. Although Flipper the dolphin is well trained and does a good job it's also nice to see "Sandy Ricks" appear in a movie again.
