Zeus and Roxanne

Rating:
Summary: Fantastic!
Review: "Zeus and Roxanne" had quite a simple concept to it but it was the story that held its audience. A dog capable of inter-species communication, in this case, it was a dolphin. The dolphin, Roxanne, was equally as pleased to see Zeus. Their owners fall in love, only to separate. They are brought together by the team of Zeus and Roxanne.

Review: All round good family movie.Friendship between dog and dolphin.Alittle romance for the grown ups and of course a bad guy played by Arnold Vosloo to round it out. I added it to my collection. Think you would enjoy it Lisa C.

Summary: Dog meets Dolphin
Review: I know the general consensus is that the movie is a little too "dear", but I rather enjoyed it,--So did my Great Dane Courageous, who watched it entranced. Perhaps the Dog-Dolphin connection is real!--but then what I do for a living (surgical intensive care) is so intense and so often lacking in happy endings that I take whatever opportunities arise for an emotional vacation. This was certainly that. Steve Guttenberg was his usual Mister Nice Guy--he's done that same roll several times (Three men and a Baby, Cocoon, etc.); he just says different things each time, but he along with the tropical setting were nice to look at anyway. I'm less familiar with Ms Quinlin's vita, but I thought she was quite creditable as a dedicated bio-oceanographer/dolphin specialist. Certainly the quest for the elusive grant is a theme with which I am familiar, working as I do at a university hospital. I especially enjoyed seeing veteran bad-guy Arnold Vosloo in a wonderfully comedic roll as the villianous foil of dog and dolphin. Some of the expressions on his face when dealing with the assorted animals in the film were worthy of Cary Grant in his comedy hay-day (Bringing up Baby and I Was a Male War Bride). Probably the very best performances however were given by Zeus (the dog) and Roxanne (the dolphin) who were some of the best trained animals I've ever seen. (I do hope Courageous was taking note, as he is often not the paragon of polished canine behavior!) My favorite scene was the "escape of Zeus" by means of the balcony. Definitely worth a replay.

Summary: Zeus and Roxanne
Review: I live part-time in the Bahamas on the Grand Bahama Island where this movie was filmed. I rent my condo when I am not there and keep a copy of the movie there for my guests to watch. I always recommend they do The Dolphin Experience (at Sanctuary Bay where many of the scenes were filmed) and actually get to pet Roxanne (real name is Kaylah). Then I suggest lunch at Banana Bay Restaurant where the wedding and limbo scenes were filmed. I know the limbo guy (King Barry) who performs at Port Lucaya (scenes from the movie were filed here as well) at night still. This movie always has a more special meaning after experiencing all this. If you plan a trip to Grand Bahama Island, by all means watch the movie, do the Dolphin Experience and have lunch at Banana Bay. Any questions, please email me.

Review: I only watched this movie cuz kid actor Miko Houghs is in it, hes so adorable, and he is a great actor, basically the only thing keeping me entertained. Miko plays young Jordan. Overall I didn't like this movie well enough to give it a 5, but it's ok.
