Dolphin Tale 2

Dolphin Tale 2 (2014) is the true-story family sequel you can watch online on iFILM. Director Charles Martin Smith picks up where the first film left off: Winter's surrogate companion Panama has died, and US regulations bar marine mammals from being housed alone. The team at Clearwater Marine Hospital has a tight deadline — find Winter a new companion or lose her to another facility. Morgan Freeman, Nathan Gamble and Ashley Judd return.

The film's quiet strength is in the details — the daily routines of animal rehabilitation, the paperwork that shapes life-and-death decisions, and the push to release a wild dolphin that's never quite learned to be wild. It works for kids as an animal adventure and for adults as a story about what long-term care actually costs. Stream Dolphin Tale 2 (2014) online on iFILM.
