A Little Childish, But It Has Its ScenesSunday, January 30, 2005
Magic In The Water is a story of a girl struggling to send the message out to people to not dump toxic waste in the body of water where her new monster friend, "Orky", lives. I give it 3 stars because although it wasn't my idea of a must-see, it still has moments where it is a complete wonderful fairy tale.

Finally! Magic in the DVD!Wednesday, January 05, 2005
After years of searching for this movie, I finally accidently stumbled upon this at the store and was thrilled. A workaholic dad takes his kids on vacation, the kids make a new friend in the lake, nearby plant pollutes lake, destroying new friends home, kids save the day, Yadda Yadda Yadda! Still, the story is cute. The kids, led by then unknown Joshua Jackson are cute, and the main critter is cute too. Good family movie also stars Mark Harmon. If you have youngins then buy this one! They will watch it over and over and over...

Highly Original Family MovieTuesday, June 11, 2002
Some movies just capture something so special and so unique. Such was MAGIC IN THE WATER. It's the perfect mix of adventure, funm comedy and drama. It has one of the funniest scenes I've ever seen---the one where the little Japanese boy falls in the hole. Hilarious. The directing is first rate and the acting is flawless. This is truly an overlooked gem that I want all my friends to know about. Brilliant.

I love this movieSaturday, August 21, 1999
I just watched this movie, becasue of a friend's recomedation. I thought that it was great that someone made a movie about this type of thing...it is a great plot- a girl who believes in magic. simple and plain, but wonderful. There needs to be more of these kinds of movies.
