 A Free Ride for Free Willy Whale
Free Willy 2: The Adventure Home portrays capitalism as the clear-cut evil tormentor of the movie, in the form of an oil tanker.
It was then that the Free Willy Foundation discovered Keiko's living conditions in Mexico City, found them to be deplorable, and used adversity and propaganda to "persuade" the Mexico City amusement park to donate him to his new home at Ocean Futures, his current owners.
And his containing net has a hole in it through which Keiko can roam free, but Keiko knows not what it's for.

 Filmtracks: Free Willy (Basil Poledouris)
Free Willy: (Basil Poledouris) Remaining as one of Poledouris' hidden gems, Free Willy is a much better than average childrens' adventure score.
The magic of Free Willy is conveyed through Poledouris' enduring and charming title theme, performed with an unusually large sound from a Los Angeles orchestra.
Regardless of what you have heard about Free Willy in the past, it is a superior adventure score with intriguing aquatic tendencies, and I recommend it to all.

 DVD Verdict Review - The Free Willy Trilogy
Free Willy—When a benign juvenile delinquent named Jesse (Jason James Richter), abandoned by his negligent mother, is arrested for his graffiti work on a whale storage tank at a Sea World-type amusement park and sent back to clean up his mess as punishment, he forms a bond with Willy, the head-case orca inside the tank.
When Free Willy was released theatrically in the spring of 1993, it became a surprise hit, raking in money and becoming a part of the pop culture zeitgeist, even becoming the source of all manner of bad puns and double-entendres in the opening monologues of late night talk show hosts.
And as the quality deteriorated—the magic gone—so did the receipts: Free Willy 2 made around $30 million at the box office, while the abysmal third installment mustered less than $4 million.

 The New Yorker: Fact
"Free Willy," which was shot on a lean budget of twenty million dollars, had a cast of mostly unknowns, and starred a child actor named Jason James Richter, who was the same age as Keiko: twelve.
"Free Willy" pulled in huge audiences right from the start—mostly kids, of course, who insisted on seeing the movie over and over and over, thus answering the movie's tag-line question, "How far would you go for a friend?," with a worldwide gross of a hundred and fifty-four million dollars.
There was talk in the Free Willy camp of moving Keiko to a pen in Oregon's Depoe Bay.

 Free Willy
And since Free Willy 2 and Free Willy 3 were shot largely in the open sea, Keiko got to retire to the beautiful Pacific Northwest while the workload was carried almost entirely by our animatronic whales (a few scenes used wildlife footage).
Since many of the scenes in the movie were too dangerous for Keiko and/or the actors, our animatronic whale ended up being used in over 50% of the whale scenes in the first Free Willy.
Edge Innovations created an animatronic double for Keiko, the killer whale that starred in Free Willy.

The whale is owned by the Free Willy Keiko Foundation, which has worked with the animal to prepare him for a return to the ocean.

 Keiko the Orca
Sea World, the owners of most of the other captive US Orcas, were understandably reluctant to allow their charges to star in a movie about freeing an unhappy killer whale, and Keiko's down-at-heel facility was ideal for the movie.
2003 Keiko, the world’s most famous whale, the star of the $154M blockbuster movie “Free Willy” (and Free Willy 2: The Adventure Home,” and Free Willy 3: The Rescue) swam free at last in the Arctic Ocean.
Orcas live mainly off fish and seals but have little blubber and poor tasting meat so they are not worth hunting by commercial whalers.

Free Willy 3 is beautifully shot movie with gorgeous cinematography which is as good as in first movie but here we can entire ocean instead of small pool.
I liked two previous Free Willy movies when original was completely a perfect masterpiece while the first sequel was also pretty good.
