This movie was well narrated, with a focus on the ocean and dolphins ~ not the typical "man is destroying the earth" as found in other shows such as National Geographic. The colors were beautiful and the story line was intriguing. Well done!

This film is a lot more entertaining than most IMAX films. It doesn't fall into the trap of being overly educational. While it has some science concepts, it also has amazing photography, engaging narration, great music, and really good editing. Even my 10-year-old didn't get bored with this one.

I got this hoping it would have some fun footage of dolphins to keep my 2-year-old happy, but in that respect it was a let-down. The footage of dolphins, while there, is not very cativating on its own. I should have paid closer attention to the "special interest" label, or at least noted the absence of a "family" rating. Other than that it's a great documentary probably better suited to older children (or adults) who have already become enamored with these animals. On it's own it doesn't do much to make dolphins fascinating for those who haven't had a chance to become fascinated by them yet.
