CommentsXp Best movie ever!

BoardChiri Bad Acting and worse Bad Screenplay

Kien Navarro Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

Quiet Muffin This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

ellimic A fantastic series with brilliant filming, David Attenborough is great as ever. Very good how they showed the impact of humans to the seas and oceans.

Adam Whitmore Many movies and television series claim to push the boundaries. This one really does. As the material about the making of the series (at the end of each episode and online) shows, the four years it took to make included a record depth for a manned submersible dive in Antarctica, round the clock diving to make sure they did not miss a once-a-year event at a remote island, coping with huge sharks attacking the crew's submarine, deploying a range of novel filming technologies, and taking so much time under water that they were able to record behaviours never seen before. Around a thousand hours of shooting were needed for each hour of programme. The results are genuinely sublime, with an astonishing range of natural wonders captured by photography that is surely peerless in its beauty, range and consistency. Skilful editing and commentary helps bring each of the subjects to life. Evocative music and sound effects may irritate some but for me, and I expect most others, these add to the impact. The conservation message is there in part in most episodes, emerging into its own in the final episode, but really the whole series is a uniquely powerful plea for the conservation of the oceans. Beyond that there is not much to say except "see it".

lexjoh If you are human it can be saved but you will need to give up all those luxury items wrapped in plastic shipped from China to give us a few moments of joy then to the bins. You have said what we all say we don't deserve the BLUE PLANET. What wonders we have still to discover but the BIGGEST might be ourselves and how we can change. Starting with ME & YOU. THANK YOU WORLD. The program shows us how we can change and save some of the fish and animals but everyday we lose more wonders including humans War and Destruction might see the end of us but unfortunately it will take the planet years to recover Loved the reality hope it's still here for my grandchildren THINK DO I NEED THIS STOP THE WASTE.

alexmarchant Anyone who saw the first installment remembers the feeling of awe they had, listening to David telling us of the Deep Blue. Somehow they have outdone this. The mysteries of the ocean are unveiled in this masterpiece of film in which I feel is an unparalleled feat of modern cinematography. Can give it no higher praise, an educational delight and simply unmissable.
