The Water Horse: Legend of the Deep

"The Water Horse: Legend of the Deep" gets the reccomendation of LA Times critic Kevin Crust:

This enchanting tale of friendship and evolving relationships engagingly grafts coming-of-age movie chestnuts onto a Scottish folk tale. Though most of the narrative won't surprise anyone who has seen "E.T. The Extraterrestrial" or numerous similar stories, director Jay Russell and screenwriter Robert Nelson Jacobs create a realistic world where the fantastical is credible.

Synopsis of The Water Horse: Legend of the Deep
