Review of Free Willy (1993) by Lucas Y — 26 Oct 2010
Cliched script, but entertaining enough. The whale scenes are cool. The scenes with Michael Madsen are funny. It's just funny to see him in stuff like Reservoir Dogs and then seeing him as a nice dad who takes in a bastard orphan.
When the kid throws the baseball through the window I just wanted Madsen to come upstairs, strap him to a chair & torture him. Gotta like any film that can get Michael Jackson to do the theme song even though Heal the World is a pretty lame song.
The jump at the end is pretty unforgettable, but would've been a lot better with a Simpsons ending. "Willy didn't make it! And he killed our son!".
