Product Description:
When a lonely young boy named Angus discovers a large, mysterious egg along the shores of Loch Ness, no one is prepared for what lies within. He soon discovers that the strange, mischievous hatchling inside is none other than The Water Horse, the loch's most mysterious and fabled creature! But with the Water Horse growing ten times its size every day, Angus finds it increasingly difficult to keep his new friend a secret. Two-time Academy Award(r) nominee Emily Watson (1998, Hilary and Jackie; 1996 Breaking the Waves), Alex Etel, Ben Chaplin (The Thin Red Line), David Morrissey (The Reaping) and Brian Cox (Running with Scissors) star in this heart warming tale from director Jay Russell (Tuck Everlasting) and written by Robert Nelson Jacobs (Flushed Away).
Amazon.com:
Based on a novel by Dick King-Smith, author of The Sheep Pig (from which Babe was adapted), the touching and often spectacular The Water Horse: Legend of the Deep ingeniously presumes to explain the truth behind "Nessie," i.e., the Loch Ness Monster. The story, told in present day to a couple of American tourists by a kindly gentleman (Brian Cox) in a pub, begins with a lonely boy, Angus (Alex Etel), pining for his father, who is serving in the Royal Navy during World War II. Angus, along with his sister (Priyanka Xi) and mother (Emily Watson), live on an estate that has been billeted by soldiers in the Scottish Highlands, near Loch Ness. The troop’s commander (David Morissey) has an eye for mom, suspicions about a mysterious handyman, Lewis (Ben Chaplin), who is also a war hero, and an absurd contention that the Highlands are the real frontline in the war against Germany.
Into this intriguing drama comes a completely different element, a fantastical creature of Celtic mythology that befriends Angus and is, in fact, the sea-beast who will eventually be known as the Loch Ness Monster. Trying to hide the dinosaur-like fellow, nicknamed Crusoe, Angus enlists Lewis to transfer it to the lake, where boy and serpent have extraordinary adventures together until human stupidity threatens Crusoe’s existence. A true family film, there is a lot for adults to like about the grownup story in The Water Horse. Meanwhile, the wistful relationship between Angus and Crusoe--each of whom helps the other move past obstacles toward their individual destinies--will leave children feeling both happy and melancholy in the best possible sense. Directed by Jay Russell (My Dog Skip), The Water Horse is the best of a mini-genre of films about or inspired by old Nessie. --Tom Keogh

- It's Free WillyNot too great of a movie, mainly because it's the same movie as Free Willy except with the Loch Ness Monster. Even freeing the monster by having it jump over an obstacle in the water. Can this be a more blatantly recycled plot?
Also, the kid rides the thing's back underwater (somehow holds on) for a long time, and then later on almost drowns just from being in the water. I know it's nitpicking, but come on.
Overall, this just wasn't a very touching movie - cute at best.

- The Water HorseMy grandson who at the age of 2 1/2 loves this movie. I couldn't believe a movie of this type would hold his interest. We started to watch it one night and our grandson cried to stay up to watch Caruso.. since then we have watched this DVD over and over and over and over. It's a wonderful story.. and some how it has captured my grandson's heart.. Angus and Caruso... In fact, the DVD has started skip -- I'm thinking its nearly worn out! I'm ordering a fresh one cuz this is truly one of my grandson's ... Read More

- A boy and his Plesiosaur.WATER HORSE is your basic "boy and his dog" movie except in the setting of 1940's Scotland in the midst of World War II, and instead of a dog it's the Loch Ness Monster. It's very predictable (boy gets attached to a pet and has to eventually say an emotional farewell to it) and has a simple plot, yet it's emotional and, at times, funny. It's also not so much a children's movie as it as an innocent movie for adults, in my opinion. Essentially, it is a children's movie but in a world of KUNG FU PANDAS, HANNAH ... Read More
