fabulous family flick November 1, 2008 Libris Vermis (Denver, CO) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
We rented the VHS about 12 years ago, when our kids were still kids. Not a film for the ages or anything, but almost perfect if your kids are between 6 and 10. Lots to please the kids, and - there is enough quirky humour for the adults.
But the big bonus was, we wondered about that gorgeous locale and watched the credits very carefully . . . Kaslo, B.C. We went the next summer; stayed a week in a camp across the lake, and spent another week cruising the interior of B.C.& Alberta. I could go on and on, but suffice to say it was one of our most memorable vacations - kids thought it was great too.
So - buy or rent the movie, and then visit Kaslo!
Damon Medic's review of "Magic in the Water" October 7, 2008 Damon Medic 0 out of 3 found this review helpful
Damon Medic believes that this may be one of the worst movies ever made. It begins with a little girl placing Oreo Cookies at the end of a pier. She goes to see the cookies in the morning, and the cream centers are missing. The girl exclaims, "I knew it!" The movie goes downhill from there. I truly believe that the producers ran out of time, and were told to "just put it out anyway." The loose ends in this film are numerous. If you want to see one ridiculous film, perhaps the worst ever, buy this movie! You won't be disappointed with regards to the low expectations. It fulfills them all!

Routine Child and Mysterious Sea Creature Movie May 26, 2008 Artist & Author (Near Mt. Baker, WA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
It seems that underwater mysterious sea or lake creatures that are friendly to the one little girl or boy who believe it them have been in vogue for a few years. This is just another one of the same basic story, with nothing particularly innovative or new. Therefore, this is just another average such movie. However, I am grading it down a full grade because of the utterly unnecessary use of swear words, not by the adults, but by the kids as well. It isn't often, but there is no excuse for such language in what purports to be a family movie. Also, in one instance Ashley suggests that one of the young boys has been "playing with himself." Why is that in a supposed family movie? Finally, the psychiatric group seemed a bit too corny for me or for my grandson who watched it with me.
Mee-Shee isn't completely free of bad language, but I think it is a better move all around than this one..
Wonderful! March 4, 2008 Coco I. (FL USA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I bought this for my 10 year old grandson and found I was just as intrigued as he was by this charming film. It is a terrific family movie starring hunky Mark Harmon and beautiful Harly Jane Kozak. The monster, Orky, is a delight and the movie deals with toxic waste, a good issue for kids to learn about.
