Children's DVD Review -- Flipper & Lopaka



Buy now from Echo Bridge Entertainment for only $6.99

Synopsis:

Flipper & Lopaka is an animated adventure series about a young Polynesian boy, Lopaka, and his loyal friend, Flipper, a bottlenose dolphin. After Flipper saves Lopaka from drowning, the pair becomes inseparable. Now, whenever there is trouble in the deep—which always happens when Dexter, the evil octopus, is around—Flipper comes to the rescue. With Lopaka by his side, and a team of lovable aquatic friends to back him up, there's no adventure too wild for Flipper. Catch all 26 episodes from season one featuring TV's most famous dolphin!

Not Rated

My Thoughts:

I tried so hard to get into these episodes -- all 26 of them.  But, I just couldn't.  Over the years, I have seen so many remakes and references to the famous dolphin, Flipper, that it is hard to top the original Flipper.  That being said, my daughter loved it.  She loved the underwater scenes, especially when Flipper and friends teamed up with Lopaka to rid the sea from evil enemies.  In this series, Flipper is the one doing the teaching.  He teaches Lopaka how to survive underwater, all while exploring the sunken undersea world.

If you children like movies like the Little Mermaid and Finding Nemo, they will enjoy this underwater sea adventure, featuring Flipper and a Lopaka.  Parents don't have to worry about gruesome battle scenes or inappropriate language, as this film is as kid-friendly as you can get.  And, for the price, it will entertain your children during a snow day or when they aren't feeling well and want to lay around.


Disclosure:  I was sent a copy of this DVD from the vendor in order to write up an honest review. The views above are mine and mine alone.
