    A Decent Children's/Family Film

    This film is much loved in our home. It's not a great film, but it has a lot of heart. The real star here is the beautiful Florida wildlife and scenery, which the movie does a great job of celebrating. It's a simple and sweet story, if lacking in originality and surprise. It's a great film for young children. Think of fun, campy movies in the tradition of Mystery of Dracula's Castle and The Adventures of Tom Sawyer It's actually pretty reminiscent of those old Haley Mills movies, like Summer Magic. It's cute and campy, and fun. Don't go in expecting a life-altering film of shocking creativity, but expect to be entertained. The scenery is still the star though, and if you love Florida, especially if you've been to and love the Sanibel/Captiva area!

    Thrills, chills and diddly dills!

    I saw this movie for the first time about a year ago with my brother, and 107 viewings and a video purchase later, this is the most "TREASURED" item in my collection. Captiva Island is a non-stop thrill ride with Die Hardian action and Pulp Fictiony dialogue. The script was superb, the direction magnificent, and the acting was masterful (notably, Ernest Borgnine as the happy fat guy). If there's one movie you folks need to see this lifetime, Captiva Island is it. This one is a 10.

    Unexpected Surprise!

    IMDB suggested this film a few weeks ago, got an evening and took it in. Scenery is great, shot very well, actors gave it a fun, family friendly performance. So when then grandkids came over I played it for them... they were completely taken in by it. Great family film, well done!

    Good times

    I have watched this movie several times, okay many, for personal reasons. Its all fun and games until the end which is essentially painful. Drink a lot and you will love it. I know my sister and I do. I have to say that it had all the ingredients to be good... and I like some of the characters. Like the pelican, love him. However this movie was billed as some sort of inspirational tale, and its not. Its more of a flipper type story. But Flipper has a mullet. The main flavor in this movie has to do with how lame it is to be 13 and in love. I say watch it and laugh. Also, singing on the back of a convertible is always good to see.
