A film of ends and beginnings

ChuDog

In comparison with the first film or even the second, Free Willy 3 seems dark and lackluster.  But for some reason, I liked it as much, if not more, than its prequels.  The film had a purpose and it accomplished the purpose. Some people who have seen the film are annoyed with Jesse's sudden seriousness.  Here's a hint: He grew up, as most people usually do over the course of four years.  Why do you think that there was a new discontented kid? I enjoyed how the movie stands for change and reformation, and how it states that even as old stories are lost, new ones begin.

score 10/10
