One evening in 1995 I was bowling with some friends. The DJ announced that there was a red head-pin being shifted around to all of the lanes.
When the red head-pin comes to your lane and you bowl a strike, then you win something. As luck would have it, the red head-pin came my way and I bowled the perfect strike.
The prize was two movie tickets for a sneak showing of Magic in TheWater. I was in for such a treat and didn't even know it yet. The movie itself was great, it really brings out the kid in all of us. It's just good clean fun for the whole family.
Then there was an unexpected twist. Just as the end credits started rolling, two figures emerged on the stage just in front of the screen. Rick Stevenson and Sarah Wayne introduced themselves to everyone and hung out for a while afterward at the theater. That was really fun, My Mom got to talking to Sarah's mom and Sarah and I got to talking. It was really a fun experience and one that I'll never forget. By the way Sarah, thanks for the Oreos!
Rick Stevenson was great too, he did a good job of putting together a movie on a less than Steven Spielberg-sized budget. He also seemed to really enjoy making movies. I still to this day own an autographed movie poster (Autographed by Rick & Sarah). Thanks to both of you for the opportunity and for a really great memory. I give this one 11 on a scale of 1-10.

I seldom worry too much about wasting three dollars, but I will always regret the time and the three dollars I wasted seeing this in a theater years ago.
The actors must have had some major bills to pay to accept their roles in this junk. The story is as hackneyed and cliched as any I have seen anywhere. Children definitely deserve better than this. Even THE MIGHTY KONG was better than this!

I saw this on showtime this AM & I loved it! Mark Harmon is adorable in this and the children are delightful. I cant think of anything bad about this movie. Ignore any negative comments u happen to read. Any one who doesn't enjoy this movie is just too picky, cynical or thinks they are a movie critic. Its the story of a father, caught up in his work, takes his children on a trip that ends up being a magical experience for all! Great for all members of the family! I was quite taken with the scenery and where it was filmed! Beautiful! If u missed this movie the first time, don't hesitate to enjoy this movie with your family! I cant wait to purchase this movie for my family movie library! Without giving too much away, in a way, the movie reminds me of the song Puff the Magic Dragon!
I enjoyed this movie, and still give it an 8, even though I wish one important aspect of the story had not been omitted: That of the clean-up of the hazardous waste. Without this facet addressed, Orky's survival is dubious. It is not a deal-breaker for me, but I am wondering why this important scene or dialogue was ignored.
I particularly liked the Native American mythology that was in the movie. The comments by Uncle Kipper about man being able to turn to animal and vice-versa established some important context to Orky and the communication and message it compelled some humans to take heed of.
We never did find out why Orky ripped the arms off of the two "gentlemen". Oh well. Perhaps the Japanese submergible team could have played a larger part in the movie, too.
Mark Harmon did a good job characterizing the transformation that he experienced. The ending was an excellent twist, and one that I did not forecast. The scenes of group therapy were good.
Although I wish we had witnessed the waste clean up, I will not detract a star for that.

Rick Stevenson's "Magic in the Water" is the usual sort of family movie that they crank out, although it is worth seeing. I wouldn't recommend the movie as your first choice, but if there's nothing else it's definitely worth checking out. My favorite parts were actually the "digging to China" scenes; looking back on it, those scenes remind me of "God's Little Acre".
So, the movie is OK to check out. Stevenson now has a company called Official Best of Fest, that distributes film festival movies that most people would otherwise never get a chance to see. Interesting concept.
Yeah, I'm a sexy guy...
