About the Movie
Two worlds separated by water and land magically come together in this heartwarming, stand-up-and-cheer adventure about the friendship between a troubled young boy and a 7000 pound orca whale named Willy, the star attraction at a local adventure park. When the boy learns of the unfortunate plans the park has for his friend, he races against time to return Willy to his natural habitat.

The #2 family hit of the year -- $77,000,000 box office! -- The Los Angeles Times says "There's a sincerity to this movie, a power and spread to its imagery that...captures honestly a sense of the wonders of nature."

A Whale Of A Movie
This movie is so touching, when I first saw it it was just a great movie about a deep friendship between a 10 year old boy and a killer whale (Orca). When Jesse plays his harmonica while cleaning Willy's tank that was the moment that a friendship was forged. The orignal score was a master piece for this film because it blended well with the film. It was thanks to this movie that Keiko was moved to Newport. Rest in peace Keiko we will never forget you. Enjoy Keiko Fans.
