Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
A magnificent look at the teeming, wildly varied life in and around the ocean.
This is a nasty, nauseating, dispiriting movie and, to repeat, whatever you do, don't take the kids -- no matter what the G rating says.
A sumptuous but occasionally soporific nature documentary.
This majestic film has all the hallmarks of Beeb quality workmanship.
