Solid dinosaur documentary

"Sea Rex 3D: Journey to a Prehistoric World" is a 40-minute short documentary movie from over 5 years ago written and directed by Ronan Chapalain and Pascal Vuong. So it is a mostly a French production, even if there is also an American impact, mostly with the entire thing being in English. What I liked the most about it is that there is a clean introduction to the whole matter when we find out how short human existence is compared to everything that was before. On a negative side I thought the whole staged situation with the woman asking him questions in France a couple centuries ago was pretty awkward. But the film also shows that no famous actor narrator is needed to make such a documentary work. You can definitely learn something from it, but you should make sure you get English subtitles unless you're a native as the contents are really difficult to understand at times. If you do, this can be a rewarding watch and I am usually not even too interested in the subject. The animation is also nicely done, but the film does not rely on it, which is not always the case with these documentaries. Thumbs up. Check it out.
