WHY WATCH THIS FILM? Because you want to see it on a big screen.
“A visual marvel like all his work, governed by his own matchless authority and striking a steady tonal balance between warning and hope, David Attenborough’s new film about the oceans is absorbing and compelling.” The Guardian
“So while this is environmental film-making at its most powerful — at times, it comes at you like a sledgehammer blow — crucially, it finds cause for optimism. Warmth again prevails. And by then the film has done its job: a warning against complacency.” The Times
“Endlessly compelling and captivating, . . unfolding over little more than 90 minutes, it’s by turns awe-inspiring, informative, deeply angering and cautiously hopeful.” Radio Times
