I've always been fascinated with biology, especially marine life. I was looking for an "ocean movie" recently and came across this. Being that it's from BBC, I knew that the quality of the whole movie was going to be superb. I've only watched a couple of disc and loved everything about them. They were very knowledgeable and breathtaking! My girlfriend was watching her movie on T.V., I was watching this on my notebook...I didn't blink one time. I looked like a zombie, mouth wide open, eyes as big as silver dollars...and she'd tap me every once in a while to see if I was O.K.. Of course I was!
For some, this may seem a little expensive, HOWEVER, it's worth MORE! The technology, experience, "shots", etc., of every aspect is priceless!
I enjoy watching movies. I like scary movies, action, comedy...but let me tell you, I personally, would rate this well above ANY movie that I've ever seen in my life!
If you decide to buy this set, trust me, you WILL NOT be disappointed!
What's great about it: Every second of each DVD! The quality, music...EVERYTHING!
What's not so great: You're not going to hear ANY complaints from me!
