“Free Willy: Escape from Pirate’s Cove” DVD Giveaway

By /

My boys love watching the “Free Willy” movies and I enjoy watching them as well!  Warner Bros. is excited to release a new “Free Willy” movie today, March 23rd on DVD and Blu-ray – “Free Willy: Escape from Pirate’s Cove.”  It’s a cute movie that is enjoyable for the whole family to watch!  I love Beau Bridges in this movie, as well as the young female star of the movie, Bindi Irwin.  I’m glad we had the opportunity to review “Free Willy: Escape from Pirate’s Cove” on DVD!

You can check out an Online Free Willy Kit for fun things to do with your kids surrounding Free Willy.

Synopsis

Fans of the Free Willy series will cheer this exciting family film about a baby orca who needs a friend and a girl who finds the courage to help him. After young Kirra (Bindi Irwin) leaves her Australian home to summer with her grandfather (Beau Bridges) in South Africa, she soon discovers a baby orca stranded in the lagoon near her grandfather’s rundown seaside amusement park. She names the lonely whale Willy – and embarks on a quest to lead the little guy back to his anxious pod before her grandfather’s greedy rival turns Willy into a captive, moneymaking attraction at his slick theme park. A little girl, a little orca and big, big fun and adventure!  Check out “Free Willy: Escape from Pirate’s Cove” today! 

MY THOUGHTS

I enjoyed this movie and feel like it was a family friendly movie.  It followed a similar storyline to the other movies in the “Free Willy” series with a twist that made it unique.  Beau Bridges and Bindi Irwin did a great job in this movie.  I look forward to seeing the next movie in the “Free Willy” series.

    I have two teenagers who loved the “Free Willy” movies as a kid. We had them all! Now, I would love to introduce my six-year-old twins to “Free Willy.” This new movie sounds great. And I’d be interested to see how Bindi Irwin (the late Crocodile Hunter’s daughter) does in the movie.

    When I was a little girl I used to love Orca whales… They were (and still are) my favorite animal. I used to want to work at Sea World with them. I had my entire room decked out with Orca whale stuffed animals…even an Orca whale light switch! The movie Free Willy has always been a favorite of mine… and I have since passed that down to my 6 year old son!

    My son LOVES free willy. He started watching it before the trailers and such for FW3 came out so he’s a “true” fan if you will! haha. Anyways, I love that it gets him excited about animals and making friends in different ways than you might traditionally think.

    Teaching children to respect nature is essential. A child that loves animals is far less likely to be aggressive or abusive toward others. I would like to win this for my 7 year old grandson.

    Aside from the fact that the stories are always heart warming, my husband’s name is William and we have a great time teasing him. My brother in law calls him “Willie” all the time!

    I loved the first one … where the ‘bad’ boy became the good guy. My grandsons are into ORCA’s totally and are mesmerized by the movies.

    We have not seen all the Free Willy films, but the ones we have seen are good, clean, wholesome family fun. Sadly, that’s a pretty rare thing in today’s society. Thank you for the chance to win.

    When I was a kid I watched Free Willy over and over just so I could check out Joshua Jackson, now I think it is great because it spreads a good message about the treatment of animals.

    I am a big fan of dolphins and whales. I remember watching free willy when I was growing up. I was always amazed with how passionate the children were about the mammals. Would love to share with my daughter.
