Leave your thoughts about Oceans.
| Boxoffice MagazinePete HammondNarrated by Pierce Brosnan, Oceans is simply amazing at times, a truly remarkable and extraordinary journey under the sea that takes us places we have never been before. |
| Entertainment WeeklyOwen GleibermanThere have, over the years, been a lot of terrific undersea documentaries, but if you want to know what distinguishes this new one, it comes down to a single word: technology. |
| The Hollywood ReporterDeborah YoungWhat "Winged Migration" did for birds, Oceans does for all sorts of strange sea creatures in an ambitious, impressively filmed documentary. |
| VarietyJay WeissbergThough there's a formlessness to it all, the wow factor will thrill the "Earth" crowd, making Oceans a surefire bet for families and nature lovers. |
| Village VoiceMichelle OrangeOcéans is a jaw-dropper as a visual travelogue--even its anthropomorphic indulgences (an ocean floor is turned into a rough neighborhood, complete with trespassers and shy weirdos) are winning. |
| St. Louis Post-DispatchJoe WilliamsAn evolutionary leap forward, a visually exquisite film that doesn't ignore the truths of pollution and predatory survival. |
| New York PostKyle SmithThe movie could -- should -- be a symphony, and it frequently makes excellent use of spare classical music. When Brosnan pipes up, he is as welcome as a car alarm. |
| NPRScott TobiasPerrin and Cluzaud mainly emphasize the sea's beauty and power as its best argument, finding exquisite choreography between those florid stretches of narration. |
| USA TodayClaudia PuigBruno Coulais' musical score provides an evocative counterpoint to the often dazzling photography. A scene featuring diving sea birds and whales moving in concert with the rhythm of the waves is stunning. |
| Philadelphia InquirerSteven ReaThe music is symphonic, the cinematography spectacular, the narration — ay, there's the rub. In Oceans, the latest Disney nature documentary, the voice-over almost manages to turn the majestic into the mundane. Almost. |
