Movie review

From Time Out Film Guide

Straightforward tale of a boy and a dolphin which proved popular enough to merit a movie sequel and launch a fondly remembered '60s TV series. You know the score by now: young Halpin nurses the dolphin back from injury, then has to persuade a grouchy old pop to let him keep his new-found pal as a pet. Will pacify small children.
