Monkey loves anything to do with the sea so I knew we’d be on to a winner when we received a copy of Back to the Sea recently.
Back to the Sea was released on 7th July through Lionsgate Home Entertainment and tells the story of a flying fish called Kevin, who gets netted in New York harbour. He ends up in a fish tank, which might have been ok, but it’s a tank in a Chinese restaurant. The fish are not there to look pretty!
The film lasts for just over an hour and half, it is a bit slow to start with, but once we got into it we both enjoyed Back to the Sea. Kevin is a dreamer, he got caught when he was trying to find his way to Barbados, the family’s ancestral homeland. He arrives in the fish tank at the Chinatown restaurant and is the only fish there who realises that this is a one way ticket. The other fish believe that when they become the ‘special of the day’ they get to become human and leave.
We follow Kevin as he builds a friendship with the young boy in the restaurant, as he dreams of escaping the tank and returning to his family’s homeland in Barbados. There is also another story running along side Kevin’s attempt to gain freedom. His family owned a valuable pearl that was stolen when Kevin was caught. By some fluke Kevin and the pearl end up in the same fish tank, but not reunited. The evil thief tries all manner of things to get to the pearl.
Back to the Sea is a film for young children, it’s not a classic, but it’s watchable and a 4 and half year Monkey enjoyed it. Did Kevin gain his freedom? You know I never spoil the ending, but I can offer you the chance to win the DVD for yourself.
