Meryl Streep narrates the sweeping visual that emphasizes the value of our world's oceans, and how they and the life thriving within depends on us to maintain their majesty. Through research, casual observance, reverence and daily life we are shown how the oceans are interconnected, and that life can be found in even the darkest corners of the sea.I first saw this IMAX film 13 years ago in the Denver Museum of History and Science, and was floored by how beautifully filmed it was. And the film is well paired with songs from Sting, especially the song 'Fragile'.

Creator of the Universe has done excellent job by creating Air, Land,and Water... and all the creatures inside them...There is nothing like Water...It is very peaceful and silent inside Water and In Air...I doubt that those who swims in open waters can understand anythingabout politics and manipulation on the Land...How would a Human feel, if Sun makes noise and Water makes noise likeHuman Vocal Cord every minute...We know more about Outer Space than about our oceans today...This movie is something to experience again and again...Movies like these makes life very beautiful, desirable, and enjoyable...Lucky are those who experience IMAX every month...Rest are just laboring for nothing...wasting their precious time talkingnonsense....Nature is truly beautiful... and we ( small object ) exist and walk onEarth ( Large Object )...and yet we fail to notice that Earth will behere.. but we will be gone momentarily....Thanks and Regards.Sam RupaniHouston, Texas, United States of Ameri

I've only ever seen 3 IMAX films and this is one of them. I was totally blown away by the incredible sound and photography. I had to study every shot because there is so much in it.It's not actually a movie like other IMAX films (such as Across the Sea of Time and T-Rex) but more of a documentary about how we are all islanders and how we live because the sea lives. It was surprisingly effective in this sense. My fave part was the discovery of the new underwater fish and the fish that had, what looked like, thousands of little lights flashing on and off.A scene with a boat fighting waves and crashing back down onto the sea was better than anything in The Perfect Storm. The sound in this particular scene is IN-CRED-IBLE.Whenever you pass by an IMAX check to see whether or not they are showing this masterpiece. You'll love it.

A fascinating look at how the oceans of the world impact the Earth. Facts like "70% of the Earth's oxygen comes from ocean plants." Great soundtrack from sting that compliments the film and each story. While not as impressive watching it at home as it is in an IMAX theater, it is still well worth a look at.
