Jugando con tiburones

What a wonderful story of the achievements of Ron and Valerie Taylor. Just loved watching this. But so sad to see Valerie in pain putting on her famous pink wetsuit at the end. I cried. She's so lovely and what a beautifully wonderful human being xx.

Growing up watching Ron and Valerie documentaries, I was excited to watch "Playing with Sharks" and being able to learn more about the life of Valerie Taylor.

Both Ron and Valerie Taylor are/were such assets to Australian marine life, and world marine life, especially in relation to sharks.

This documentary was mesmerizing. Valerie is such a strong woman and national treasure. I would love to see an actual film done about her life, with perhaps Margot Robbie playing her part.

If you love sharks and the Taylors then definitely do not miss out on this documentary.

I had just a few weeks before watching this documentary rewatched the classic Blue Water, White Death documentary, when Valerie and Ron had gone on search of Great Whites in South Africa in the 70's with other marine experts. How times have changed, it was quite destressing to relive seeing the slaughter of whales.

Definitely take the time to watch Playing with Sharks, you will not be disappointed, and lets hope some Aussie film maker decides to make a biopic about Valerie and Ron.

...and holy wow am I glad I saw this film. This film is a brilliant watch full of stunning information, beautiful images, funny banter, and even a love story.

I love this documentary so much.

Stunning, & brilliantly executed. A must see for all those who love the underwater universe .

Saw the premiere of this film through Sundance online and wow, this film was magnificent. I had never heard of Valerie Taylor before but was intrigued by the synopsis I read online; long story short, Taylor's relationship with sharks started with spear fishing and she was very notable in her native Australia for it, but she and her husband put an end to their spear fishing days after they realized it was wrong. After Taylor's epiphany moment from killing one shark in particular, she and her husband instead became ambassadors to sharks and advocates for their conservation. They helped revolutionize and change society's interpretations of sharks as a whole and helped society sway away from the social construct that they are soulless, killing machines. Despite this though, as the documentary points out, we still have a long way to go to giving sharks the protection they truly deserve. Through gorgeous cinematography and great storytelling, the film achieves what it aims to.
