This provocative journey into the ocean realm highlights a critical moment in time when the marine world is on a precipice.

Jake Wilson

The Age (Australia)

Does this kind of parade of horrors do any practical good, or is it merely a modern brand of exploitation cinema, letting us feel righteously indignant as well as thrillingly appalled?

Rated: 2.5/5

Film Threat

Moral clarity isn't a bad thing when you can back it up. The narrators frequently drop statistics that shocked me.

Rated: 7/10

Blue is a brief but potent look at the wet parts of the planet from Australian filmmaker Karina Holden.

David 'Mad Dog' Bradley

Adelaide Review

A certainly challenging doco that encourages us to change our lives, this does perhaps very nearly fall into the trap of wallowing in the eco-horror of it all, but Holden knows that audiences don't want to be told that it's their fault, and pulls back.

Rated: 8/10
