Movie Reviews of The Living Sea (IMAX) (2-Disc WMVHD Edition)
Movie Review: Great Images & Sound
Summary: 5 Stars
One of the best IMAX videos available. Great visuals. Great sound (thank you Sting).If you're fortunate enough, watch this on widescreen TV & crank up the surround sound system & enjoy. And thank you DVD producers for making this with DTS.
Most enjoyable moments (no order):
* Everything on Palau
* Migrating jelly fish (also in Palau)
* Watching a cuttlefish change color to camouflage itself while moving
* Coast guard boat going through horrendous ocean waves.
Highly recommended!
Movie Review: Versatile entertainment
Summary: 4 Stars
Take a beautiful journey without leaving your seat! This is what you could call versatile entertainment: beautiful images of the life below the surface, completed with a gentle soundtrack. I found Meryl Streep's narration a little boring, maybe they should have chosen a different voice for this. The disc quality is superb, although you probably should have a widescreen television to enjoy the most of it, because the main title is filmed in Imax. As a result of that, the image has a fish eye effect on a standard tube. If you have a widescreen tube and are able to blow up the image to widescreen format, you might enjoy it better. Apart from the sometimes spectacular main thing there's a lot of extra material on the disc, which is accessible via a nice designed menu. Be sure to check out all of the little icons here, there's a lot not to be missed! A lot of 'making of' items can be found here, worth a while. If you love nature and you're interested in lifeforms deep inside the sea this is certainly a disc you shouldn't miss...Movie Review: The Living Sea
Summary: 5 Stars
If you like IMAX movies even more so, the ocean, the you would like this film. Not to mention Sting in the background just makes it well worth the while to own. The VHS is in High Definition Video so if you have a decent VCR (Sony)it almost looks as good as a DVD.Movie Review: We are all islanders
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought (unintentionally) the Original Soundtrack in 1996, wishing to have some instrumental music to listen before bedtime...but it turned out to be a remarkable soundtrack. After that I wish I have a chance to see this IMAX, but where I live, the IMAX Theatre was built 3 years later. At first, I didn't care about this DVD when it's on sale, however, I noticed that it features DTS surround sound. I thought, well, at least I can enjoy my favorite musics again in DTS...that should be great.Yes, I wasn't disappointed a bit on the sound quality...but the picture..I just wish that they should add more fishes and coral reef.
Movie Review: Great Film
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a great film to have. The narration is top notch and the music by STING is a perfect complement to the images of the sea. The original in IMAX is great.
