The Water Horse

This movie is the story of a boy during world war II, and his pet, Crusoe, the Loch Ness monster. Crusoe starts out as a tiny animal, a few inches long, but he grows at an incredibly fast rate. English soldiers occupy the house when Crusoe is, and before long, he had to be released into the lake for his own protection. I really liked this movie. It was family-friendly, most of my younger siblings saw it. I'm one of those people who actually think the Loch Ness monster does exist, or at least did in recent years. Unfortunately, the water in the real lake is about the color of dark coffee, and even high-tech radar can only go a few yards. The graphics in this film were pretty cool. The story was almost a little cheesy, but it was still really good. This was a great family movie, I recommend it for almost anybody, unless some young children might be frightened by Crusoe when he "goes wild" for a little while and is really mean and stuff. I give this movie an 8 on the scale.
