Cannot Hold A Candle To BBC's "Deep Blue"
I was looking forward to seeing this, since I've always been a fan of quality nature films, however, I found myself very disappointed with this film. If you have ever seen the truly beautiful, artistic, and utterly poetic nature film "Deep Blue", which came out from the English a few years ago, you are going to see far too many ironic similarities in this Disney production. Yes, they are both ocean films, and there are bound to be similarities, of course, but you will notice that Disney seemed to follow far too closely in their footsteps, even down to whom they chose to narrate (Pierce Brosnan)!! There are several actors one can choose to do a compelling narration - you do not have to choose the very same one. I'm not sure I understand why a company like Disney, who once were the masters of imagination, uniqueness, & fantasy, fail so miserably over these past 2 decades. Also, this film had approximately 1/4 of what "Deep Blue" had. If you want to watch a truly remarkable ocean film, see "Deep Blue", and pass over this one.

Trivia

The English version is narrated by Pierce Brosnan, who played James Bond in GoldenEye (1995), Tomorrow Never Dies (1997), The World Is Not Enough (1999), and Die Another Day (2002). The Spanish version is narrated by Pedro Armendáriz Jr. who played a "Bond ally" alongside Timothy Dalton in Licence To Kill (1989).

Quotes

Narrator: So instead of asking, 'What, exactly, is the ocean?' maybe we should be asking, 'Who, exactly, are we?'

Goofs

When the moon 'rises' horizontally, the narrator says it is "Near the North Pole". However the moon is moving right to left which is what it would look like from the South Pole.
