This is an inspiring and thought provoking movie about people and whales that is suitable for all age groups - don't' miss it !

This is a riveting movie that is suitable, and indeed inspiring, for all ages, from school children to grandparents. It presents a balanced view of some complex issues and film footage both above and below the water is truly amazing. Don't be fooled into thinking this is a typical documentary movie. If you want see something that is entertaining, educational and thought provoking, then don't miss it - and take your kids - they will love it and it may lead to some discussion with them that will amaze you! I learned more from this movie about nature, animals, humans, and myself than I ever expected. The 90 minutes flew by and I think the entire audience was disappointed when it ended.
