Product Description:
Warner Brothers National Geographic: Sea Monsters (Blu-ray) Fornearly 200 million years while dinosaurs roamed the Earth, the seas teemed with some of the most awe-inspiring ocean creatures of all time. 'Sea Monsters', a National Geographic Giant Screen film, isan entertaining journey into prehistoric oceans. Inter-cutting between the animated story and the reenactments of fossil discoveries combine the appeal of Indiana Jones with the CGI that brings theseprehistoric monsters to life. Perfect for the whole family.
Amazon.com:
For the child who knows the difference between a diplodocus and an apatosaurus (or for the adult who remembers a youthful obsession with dinosaurs), National Geographic's Sea Monsters: A Prehistoric Adventure will be a delight. This 40-minute special explores the less-familiar world of the prehistoric oceans, filled with predatory Platecarpi, gentle Protostegas, and cold-eyed Xiphactini. The story follows a newborn Dolichorhynchops (a short-necked plesiosaur that looks a little like a dolphin crossed with the Loch Ness Monster) as she matures into adolescence and adulthood, surviving encounters with sharks and the fearsome Tylosaurus, who's sort of the T-Rex of the deep. Juxtaposed with these vivid CGI recreations are staged depictions of paleontological digs throughout the 20th century that unveiled the bones of these ancient deep-sea beasties. It's irrefutable: Dinosaurs are compulsively fun to learn about, and the prehistoric creatures of the ocean are no exception. --Bret Fetzer

Rating:  - Nice eye candy, but movie itself is lacking.
This Blu-ray Disc has excellent picture and sound.However, I found the movie itself to be lacking.First of all, the content of this movie could have been narrated in 15 minutes; as a result, the movie seems to repeat the same concept over and over again therefore being very predictable in where it is going.
Second of all, the movie was very obviously designed to be watched in 3-D.The effect is just not the same in 2-D as fish swim towards the screen in 2-D and objects awkwardly ... Read More
Rating:  - Sea Monsters vs Chased by Sea Monsters
Definitely the best-to-date film on prehistoric sea-life I've seen. It follows the story of a little-known but rather cute creature called Dolichorhynchops (a.k.a. Doli) and the creatures she encounters in the then submerged center of America. While its graphics don't match that of "Chased by Sea Monsters," the story-line and the info "Prehistoric Adventure" gives has "Chased" simply gasping for air.
The "Adventure" jumps seamlessly between the ancient life of Doli and the paleontologists ... Read More
Rating:  - Not bad..... good visuals..... definitely seen better.
I've found that I do enjoy these kinds of documentaries-- y'know like Discovery Channel's 'Walking with Dinosaurs', and others such as 'Alien Planet'.These productions are all totally CGI, and take you on a journey back in time,(or in the future) and for the most part they're done very impressively. 'Sea Monsters' is a production of National Geographic, and although done very well, just didn't wow me the way DC does.The visuals were great, but $20 was a little high for something I might watch 1 or ...
