Magic in the Water

Radio psychologist Jack Black takes his children Joshua and Ashley on a 'vacation' to a lake in British Columbia. While he grinds away at work the children discover that the famous local lake monster "Orky" may not be just a gimmick to attract tourists after all. In fact, Orky may enable them to get closer to their workaholic dad, and help stop local polluters who are dumping toxic waste.

There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

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.

I decided to stay in British Columbia and watch another Lock Ness movie. This time the star is a little girl Sarah Wayne, in her only film. She was absolutely adorable, and made the experience pleasant.I wish I could say the same for Mark Harmon, but he just didn't do it. It's another story of a dad who is "forced" to spend some time with his two children (the other is BC native Joshua Jackson from "Dawson's Creek') and leaves them to find their own entertainment while he writes a book.His daughter discovers the magic in the lake and he becomes infected, causing him to forget the book and do some bonding.They manage to save the creature from the evil toxic waste dumpers with a little help from and old Indian played by Frank 'Grey Wolf' Salsedo.

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!

This was a cool movie, and the acting was wonderful! This is a family movie that every one will enjoy. I saw it on the Fox Family Channel.The two kids, Joshua and Ashley and this chinese boy find a sea monster that everyone thinks its there to sare off tourist, but acually never scares them off. Ashley sees it's dieing and wants to save it.Like i said it's a wonderful movie that the whole family will enjoy!
