DVD Review: Ocean
Summary: 5 Stars

This was a great documentary. We love nature films and this one was very good. The narration was enjoyable and informative and the music was soothing with it. If you like ocean documentaries, you will like this one.

DVD Review: Deep Blue is Breathtaking
Summary: 5 Stars

This is a movie that will allow you to see the world's oceans. What makes it so different is the spectacular camera work. It effortlessly catches penguins swimming underwater and then follows them seamlessly as they shoot out of the water and land on a glacier. You will float under an ice shelf barely clearing it...go deep into the darkest part of the ocean to see illuminated sea creatures that most have never seen before. It is a beautifully filmed spectacular work that will excite your senses as well as educate you. Not to be missed.

DVD Review: Beautiful Images
Summary: 4 Stars

This is not a hard core documentary that satisfies a hunger for learning. Instead, it is an appetizer to whet the appetite. It is survey of the polar environments and the lifeforms that inhabit them. The video is stunning and the narration is adequate. For young people, it will be quite a treat. For those hungering for more information, they will not find it here. That does not stop the enjoyment, however. It is well done.

Deep Blue is a compelling BBC documentary that introduces viewers to some of earth's most mysterious ocean creatures. Three years in the filming, the breathtaking cinematography of Deep Blue (all of which originally appeared in the BBC series The Blue Planet - Seas of Life), combined with an excellent musical score and the sparse narration of Pierce Brosnan, is both awe inspiring and moving. Intimate and unique footage of sea life includes an innovative under-the-ice view of penguins propelling themselves out of the water as captured by a newly invented pole camera. Cutting-edge submarine technology allows the exploration of the deepest reaches of the sea where alien looking, jelly-like creatures flourish in a world of immense pressure and constant darkness. Perhaps the most peculiar setting is the Marianas Trench where deep mid-ocean ridges regularly erupt and spew hot water and poisonous gasses into the water while sea life inexplicably flourishes on the underwater chimneys. Rare footage of a polar bear hunting beluga whales and orca whales ravaging a sea lion and attacking a gray whale cub is graphic and disturbing, but lends a sense of a eons-old natural hierarchy. While the scarcity of narration in the main film sometimes leaves the viewer hungry for information, the 50-minute "making of" feature is packed with logistical and technical details. The segment also conveys the entire crew's firm commitment to creating a complete ocean portrait with the goal of engaging people with the creatures of the ocean. (Ages 6 and older) --Tami Horiuchi
