Not only is this visually amazing underwater documentary, but it is also rare sight into the life of a man who was willing to do whatever it takes for the planet. I really enjoyed this film. It's an excellent investigation and raw journalism at it's finest, but it also registers so deeply with me emotionally. I feel like I know Rob Stewart, and I'm friends with the sharks. This one is going in the library, can wait for the blu ray.
"Shows how important sharks are, in a highly emotive way" (9/10)

Shakwater Extinction is one of the best documentaries where sharks are the victims. Rob, the real life hero who gave his life to save the Sharks for this world and delivers an important message and changes the way you see the oceans. Its underwater photography is breathtaking. Really a Beautiful movie from a beautiful soul. I would also appreciate Rob's parents (Sandy and Brian) and Team Sharkwater who worked tirelessly to complete and release this movie after Rob's death. -Shariq
Stewart quotes, "why are we taught Shakespeare and algebra but not conservation and ecosystems?" ...or something like that. In any case, that makes an excellent point.
Just like there's "documentaries" out there about the near-extinction of polar bears, I've also seen and read scientific accounts that polar bears are actually at record high population numbers, as with sharks are increasing in numbers.
It's all how much perspective bias the "facts" are twisted to fit the intended dialogue.
I gave a "3" for some nice underwater camera shots.
