Brad Wheeler Globe and Mail 01/31/2019
2.5/4
A combination of state-of-the-art cinematography and old-fashioned documentary storytelling, this gorgeous film is 3D visually, but frustratingly two-dimensional otherwise. Go to Full Review

3.5
Aimed at kids whose imaginations may be sparked by the unusual watery beasts on display. The narration, courtesy of the Cousteau family and Schwarzenegger, is simple and direct, often with the feel of an educational classroom film. Go to Full Review

6/10
It may move at a glacial pace, and its presentation may not be anything new, but Wonders of the Deep offers a chance to take a minute (or 80) and meditate upon our treatment of the oceans that harbors us. Go to Full Review

02/04/2019 Such a beautiful film! I had no idea there were creatures like that in the ocean. The images are crystal clear, really stunning and very colorful. It's different from any other nature films I've seen, it's almost like an experience, especially with the 3D. Why can't we see more of these in theatres? I want to see it again, and bring my sons! See more 01/18/2019 I had never dive before, but thanks to the amazing 3D, I was feeling like I was cruising underwater along beautiful creatures that I never suspected existed ! See more 01/18/2019 A spectacular visual treat, Wonders of the Sea 3D is mesmerizing in the way it unveils one fascinating explosion of color after another. It uses state of the art cinematographic techniques to makes us aware of the abundance of life below the surface of the ocean and our dependence on it for our own survival. See more Read all reviews
