Nayan Gough A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

Anoushka Slater While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

Billy Ollie Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

Allissa .Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

Vic_max If you're in the mood for a low-key, pleasant little kid-centric "lock-ness" monster movie, you'll enjoy this one. I started watching it in the background while it was on a TV movie channel and quickly got interested in it.The basic premise is as follows: A helicopter carrying an important oil-drilling bit has crashed in a remote Canadian lake. The drilling company sends their small-submarine specialist (who brings his son) to recover the item. While there, the boy encounters an elusive local resident of the lake. In the midst of all this, a rival drilling company is trying to sabotage the recovery efforts ... and the story progresses from there.There's nothing really special about the plot and the kid-centric aspect can be a potential turn-off for many adult viewers. However, in this case, the story is well done and the characters are well acted and interesting - so it was worth the time. As long as you're expectations are for a low-key but well done little movie, you'll have a pleasant time.

I really wanted something to show me what I can expect, and I certainly wasn't disappointed.Bruce Greenwood (Double Jeopardy, I'm Not There) cancels a vacation with his son to find a drill bit.

dbborroughs Young boy who was suppose to go on vacation with his dad finds that his plans are changed when his dad's business send them to a remote Canadian lake where a helicopter crashed. Once there he's left to his own devices as his dad tries to recover the chopper and what it was carrying. In the process he discovers the tales of a monster living in the lake are true.Sweet family film with a creature by the Henson Creature Shop. I'm guessing that most adults are going to find this a quaint little film thats very much like the films they saw growing up. I'll also wager that most young kids are going to eat this up, which isn't surprising since this is actually a pretty good movie that, while probably not memorable, isn't something that you're going to go wandering off while its on. Yea, its a movie that both kids and parents are going to enjoy.I liked it and can honestly say that if you end up seeing it you'll probably like it too.

wrlang A typical gentle giant film about a large creature living in a deep Canadian lake. Adored by the locals with potential earth shattering ramifications for scientific community, Mee-Shee is a water bound ET. It has all the elements of a good film for the kids under 11, and only kids under 11 that are not use to the normal breakneck paced, borderline porn, of today's 'family' films. The main character is Mac (Magder) who searches for Mee-Shee as the locals try and convince him not to tell his scientist dad about the 'monster'. The CGI is OK, and the cinematography is good. Seasoned actors keep the film from being a real bore due to lack of action and a well worn plot. It accomplishes its goal of being a clean family film for the very young to enjoy.
