The Living Sea

Meryl Streep narrates the sweeping visual that emphasizes the value of our world's oceans, and how they and the life thriving within depends on us to maintain their majesty. Through research, casual observance, reverence and daily life we are shown how the oceans are interconnected, and that life can be found in even the darkest corners of the sea.

I first saw this IMAX film 13 years ago in the Denver Museum of History and Science, and was floored by how beautifully filmed it was. And the film is well paired with songs from Sting, especially the song 'Fragile'.

The Living Sea is a movie that can make you understand how we fit with the ocean ecosystem. I like the underwater scenery the best, because it almost feel you are swimming with the fishes. I saw this movie in Hawaii in 1997 at Polynesian Cultural Center on Oahu. It was a nice companion piece to my travel on the island.

Creator of the Universe has done excellent job by creating Air, Land,

and Water... and all the creatures inside them...

There is nothing like Water...

It is very peaceful and silent inside Water and In Air...

I doubt that those who swims in open waters can understand anything

about politics and manipulation on the Land...

How would a Human feel, if Sun makes noise and Water makes noise like

Human Vocal Cord every minute...

We know more about Outer Space than about our oceans today...

This movie is something to experience again and again...

Movies like these makes life very beautiful, desirable, and enjoyable...

Lucky are those who experience IMAX every month...

Rest are just laboring for nothing...wasting their precious time talking

nonsense....

Nature is truly beautiful... and we ( small object ) exist and walk on

Earth ( Large Object )...and yet we fail to notice that Earth will be

here.. but we will be gone momentarily....

Thanks and Regards.

This IMAX film is a breathtaking look at the workings of the world's oceans and its inhabitants. Magnificent cinematography makes this film an awesome sight on the giant screen. The magic is lost on video, however. But it is nevertheless an informative and beautifully filmed documentary. Also check out the great soft jazz/new age/pop soundtrack by Sting.

I am an avid fan of the IMAX format, but rarely have I ever been a fan of any IMAX film. This is the one IMAX film that I feel has used the advantages of the format in nearly every shot, and besides that, it is an elegantly produced little film. Extremely beautiful, with many highlights. It is a must-see for all those who've never been exactly impressed by anything at an IMAX show (although the 'industry' is working overtime in amping up this cinema-sideshow - they promise it will be the 'next big thing' in movies). DON'T WATCH IT AT HOME.
