Author Topic: Deep Sea 3D IMAX (2006) Brian Michael Weidemann Expert cat molester Posts: 944 From: Costa Mesa, CA United States Registered: Feb 2004 posted 02-25-2006 06:18 AM                        Clearly a sequel to Into The Deep 3D, this movie is 41 minutes of beautifully crisp and colorful images of odd underwater life, narrated in a sometimes playful manner by Johnny Depp and Kate Winslet. "Did that shellfish just bite back?" If the viewer is at all familiar with elementary marine biology and symbiosis among species, then this movie is hardly educational. Kids will eat it up, but it's NOTHING that IMAX frequenters haven't seen before. I enjoyed it, as most people will, simply because of the captivating nature of just watching creatures do their thing. I don't need the narrator to explain that these "are not aliens from another world, or even science fiction", but real, and on our own planet. I liked the Danny Elfman music, as it is very typical Elfman. Other than the quirky, subtle effect during the end credits (where a single fish out of a screen-filling school will swim in front of the words) which I thought was clever, there is nothing more worth noting about this feature at all. I hope we get many group sales and rentals for it, just like in the old days before DMR.  |  IP: Logged
