gregrideout This movie forgot to be interesting. Or perhaps it substituted silly long sequences of footage that were interesting ONLY because of the 3-D. I would advise the movie maker to make a good movie first, a 3-D movie second. And, with each meandering, uninteresting footage of seals or schools of fish came the awful loud music. In fact, I'd say the footage would be MORE interesting if the music were more subtle and sometimes non-existent.I like documentaries. I like ocean documentaries. I grew up with Jacques Cousteau. It is hard for me to imagine him making such an awful movie. There were two redeeming values. One, it kept my seven year old entertained. Two, one or two of the facts mentioned were new to me.If you are looking for an entertaining and informative movie on sharks or the ocean, look elsewhere, my friend.
users3000 Beautiful footage by a highly respect marine biologist made all the more stunning in 3-D. This is not only a fun film to watch, giving you a virtual reality experience of scuba diving with sharks and many other creatures (sea turtles, dolphins, manta rays, saw fish, sea lions), but also contains an informative and important message about conservation. Many of these creatures are endangered, some critically. This adds a poignancy to the film. The creatures are beautiful and impressive, but if we want to continue to enjoy nature, we will have to do more to protect it from overfishing, and needless destruction in drift nets, long-line fishing, shark fin soup and other wasteful practices. Highly recommended for all ages. One of the best IMAX films I've seen.
thejamestullyfanclub I saw this film at The Manchester IMAX the other day and was blown away by it. I thought it might have been a bit basic for a shark fan, but it was full of great information. The underwater footage was simply astounding and it really looked like you could reach out and grab the sharks! Jean-Michel Coustaeu was a great presenter, just like his Dad. He was really good at getting across the facts in a fun way - great for kids & not too condescending for adults. If you have kids then take them to see it as the whole family will enjoy it.It was good to see some of the other animals of the sea as well. The Sharks interaction with the Dolphins was particularly fascinating. Recommended for all Shark lovers, families and people amazed by the unknown.
krasher78 After reading the previous comment that was posted I wasn't sure if I wanted to see this film, but being a fan of both Jacques and Jean-Michel Cousteau's work since I was a little girl I felt that it would be worth seeing. I am so glad that I did! The turtle doesn't talk, the narrator provides the information from the perspective of a sea turtle. The previous comment made me think that there was turtle that was edited to appear as if it were talking. There was great footage of sharks, rays and many other specimens of ocean life. Yes this does include sea lions and dolphins, but it did so to show how sharks co-exist with other animals, and show that they are not like the famous shark in Jaws. It a good job of showing different species of sharks which need our help if they are to escape extinction. It works to get people interested in learning more about sharks so that they will want to learn more!
