Filmmaker Soames Summerhays examines the ecology of Mexico's Sea of Cortès and Baja California.

Bruce Westbrook

Houston Chronicle

You're not getting the whole picture in Ocean Oasis, just the critter-cute ones. But at least the film is well shot, showing striking vistas and images both above and beneath the waves.

Minneapolis Star Tribune

It's peaceful, gentle and tranquil. It's not quite the same as a vacation, but it's about as close as you're going to get on celluloid.

Rated: 3/4

A photographic marvel of sorts, and it's certainly an invaluable record of that special fishy community.

Rated: 3.5/4

If you prefer nature films to be unprovocatively handsome, Oasis will be your cup of soothing tea. It may be especially useful for little folks who are getting a first view of oceanography.
