Dolphin Tale 2

Dolphin Tale 2

“I like that fish!” says Morgan Freeman’s dolphin prostheticist (inexactly) of the cetacean invalid he designed a faux fin for in the first Dolphin Tale (2011). The filmmakers will be hoping audiences feel similar warmth for this largely redundant sequel, the thrust of which involves a search for a new companion for its flipper-less heroine after her old one goes to that…

Hopping erratically between 1885, 1916 and 2014, the storyline follows Peter Lake (Colin Farrell), who falls for a consumptive beauty (Jessica Brown Findlay) while earning the ire of Russell Crowe’s Irish gangster (yes, really).

Khumba: A Zebra’s Tale

Khumba: A Zebra’s Tale

This likeable but limp South African ’toon about a half-striped zebra aims to reclaim its continent’s wildlife from Hollywood safaris like The Lion King. Alas, it’s too timid to survive against feistier competition.
