Dolphin Tale

• Dolphin Tale is inspired by the amazing true story of a brave dolphin and the compassionate strangers who banded together to save her life. Swimming free, a young dolphin is caught in a crab trap, severely damaging her tail. She is rescued and transported to the Clearwater Marine Hospital, where she is named Winter. But her fight for survival has just begun. Without a tail, Winter's prognosis is dire. It will take the expertise of a dedicated marine biologist, the ingenuity of a brilliant prosthetics doctor, and the unwavering devotion of a young boy to bring about a groundbreaking miracle—a miracle that might not only save Winter but could also help scores of people around the world. The real Winter, who plays herself in "Dolphin Tale," today serves as a symbol of courage, perseverance and hope to millions of people—both able and disabled—who have been touched by her remarkable story of recovery and rehabilitation.


• This is one of the biggest heartstring movies to come out in a long time. They pulled absolutely no punches to make you cry. It was textbook. You also pretty much saw the movie by seeing the commercial. I mean honestly - anyone think that the dolphin is not going to be okay in the end? Am I spoiling that for anyone? Come on now. The movie is somewhat watchable but ended up just kind of being there because I wasn't really hooked.


• I would recommend this to anyone who likes weepy feel good movies. It's a great family movie if you have younger children. Sadly, Stinka has gotten to an age where she doesn't really have interest in this anymore. Beginning of the end, people. Beginning of the end.
