Oceanos Com David Attenborough

Went to see this documentary, released to mark the 99th birthday of David Attenborough. The plea to save our oceans is heartfelt and moving, with David telling us that he's coming to the end of his days. I was appalled at the wanton and greedy destruction of the ocean habitats and sea creatures through profligate overfishing. However, despair turns to hope as David explains how easy it is to repair the ravages we have wrought on the marine environment. We really must not turn a blind eye to the blight of overfishing, horrific trawling and the near extinction of marine species. David narrates with as much passion and dedication as ever, and it was quite poignant to see him standing on the white cliffs at the end.

This documentary was incredible, it contains the facts and information that we all need to know.

If you are someone wondering whether or not to see this as you may not think it's your cup of tea then please know that it has been constructed to capture the attention of many different types of people ALL with different interests.

The documentary was visually wonderful. Personally I found this overall an emotional but heart-warming experience.

Sir David Attenborough is a towering figure in natural history story-telling and he shows this again in this documentary.

I cannot recommend this enough.

I was lucky enough to view this film in the presence of the director and a panel of European dignitaries, scientists and policy makers. I cried. Trawlers have destroyed the oceans, with government subsidies! Insane. But the cinematography was beyond beautiful. I cried at the beauty, despair and glimmer of hope the movie portrayed. David Attenborough is the world's best narrator and lover of nature. At 99, he has inspired generations and I hope, like Carl Sagan still inspires today all things of the Cosmos, Attenborough will continue to do so after he has been gone. And like Sagan's 21st century inheritor, Neil Degrasse Tyson has continued his legacy successfully, I still cannot imagine who can take Attenborough's place yet. He is legend. Pure visual and intellectual delight. Thank you for making these films. They inspire.

One of Sir Attenborough's most powerful pieces and his place in the world will have a huge set of shoes to fill.

This is a must watch if you care about anyone younger than you that will see the next decade.

I don't need to write an essay about it so here is a repeat of the above

To me, this feels like the most important documentary of our time. Whilst watching, I felt the full spectrum of emotions - despair, awe, wonder, fear - to name of few. The biggest emotion I am left with, however, is hope. I have complete admiration for Sir David Attenborough and his significant contributions to our world. The message in this documentary is a gift to the planet and I hope it is received with the importance and respect it deserves.

The documentary was visually beautiful and the musical score moved me as much as the message. In my opinion, the best pieces of television vibrate within you long after you've watched them - I am still fizzing with thought and emotion hours after watching.
