Jim Carrey uses his softest narrating personality to tell the tale of the ocean’s reef systems and the creatures that make these underwater paradises their homes. I found the cinematography to be breathtaking and some of the creatures documented to be astounding in their complexities.
As with all other IMAX films, the story moves ahead at a well timed pace while giving school children something new to consider. Most environmental films today harp over and over on the need to change our evil polluting ways but this film takes a kinder and gentler path. Yes, the effects of man have changed the undersea landscape but the filmmakers do not try to enlist our children into an army of activists – as is all too frequent in other documentaries.
Dove is pleased to award this film our “Family-Approved” Seal for all ages.
