S P @S1337 02/19/2023 A well rounded film that follows the life of the Cousteau family, the ups and downs, the good and bad. Touches many different subjects. The story and scenes are well shot, the pace is great. A chance to rediscover the fabulous work done by Commander Cousteau to elevate the sense of discovery and adventure in all, his darker parts notwithstanding.

I thought it featured some good performances, particularly from Audrey Tautou as Jacque's wife, Simone and also from Pierre Niney, as Jacque's son, Philippe. It's a family drama and I felt I could understand the issues that both the wife and son had with the infamous Jacques. I certainly felt he came across as quite a selfish person and also very much a dreamer. The story intrigued me and the performances helped make this a somewhat solid watch, although I can't say its a film I'd rush to watch again. Its a good watch though and if your particularly interested in the Cousteau family, then I'd recommend it, yes.
