IMAX: Deep Sea
Dive in! A sea full of wonders awaits.
Famed oceanic filmmaker Howard Hall (Into the Deep) guides this immersive adventure that lets you swim alongside some of the most exotic creatures of the planet. Johnny Depp and Kate Winslet provide the narration. And an unusual array of finned and scaled stars are ready to steal every scene. Among them: Green Sea Turtles who gather off Kona so that Surgeonfish can strip harmful algae from their shells... an ominous, predatory Humboldt Squid that changes color four times per second like a flashing strobe light... an underdog Mantis Shrimp, whose claws have the speed of a 22-caliber bullet, in battle against a hungry octopus (the shrimp wins!). So many creatures. So many amazing stories. Sea them all.

very well filmed footage of octopi. it shows how ocean life is like a colorful choreography worth protecting, worth saving. i found the film a bit short but it left me with a good feeling.lots of oddities to savor.the narration was well done as well.Looks pretty, but content is weak. - Zanne
don't bother with this unless you're 6 years old or of the lowest common denominator. the narration is superficial, annoying and insipid. the studio-generated sound effects (like the grouper "burping") are lame and detract from the natural wonder of the creatures filmed.
if you want to learn about the creatures in the oceans and be fascinated & wowed, rent the blue planet series instead. don't waste your time with this second rate crap.Yuck - Elliott1
I couldn't listen to Depp and Winslett for five minutes, and I ended up turning off the sound. The footage is good, but this is a *children's* script and I found its lame jokes and minimal data really annoying and disappointing. It is most unfortunate that the zip.ca write-up did not mention that this DVD narration is designed for kiddies.
