Review of Free Willy (1993) by Oxana — 19 May 2014
This movie is epic in so many ways.
A story of a boy abandoned by his mother, struggling in the world, and the story of a whale captured from the sea mix together perfectly.

A story of a boy abandoned by his mother, struggling in the world, and the story of a whale captured from the sea mix together perfectly.
There is a genuine, pure feeling in the story, and the acting is natural and quite superb. The feelings are conveyed from the screen to the viewer without obstacles, and although I'm sure this film is filled with clichés and typical characters, it still manages to hold all the important pieces together.
The plot itself moves at a steady pace, making us wait for a bit for the eventual good stuff - the fast friendship between Jesse and Willy the whale - but it doesn't drag its feet too much.
All in all a prefect, touching family film to be watched again and again.
