THE WATER HORSE: LEGEND OF THE DEEP * (Theatrical Release USA 2007)

Ben Meyers’ rating: 3.6|5.0 Stars ììì

The Water Horse: Legend of the Deep—is a good story. It backs itself with Scotland's World War II events, weaves in some tastefully competitive romance, and allows a young boy to come to grips with the loss of his father. The story is well done and worth watching. It inspires the imagination and reminds us that it is important to stay young by asking, ‘what if?’ 

Storyline

Young Angus MacMorrow (Alex Etel) finds an egg that hatches into a creature which a handyman identifies as a water horse. The two develop a friendship and help each other find their separate destinies.
