Ocean Predators (2013) User Reviews

Predators in a fish tank

[soger · 5/10 · 27 November 2013]

While the informations shared by the narrator are without any doubt very interesting, this documentary still left me unsatisfied. With a title like "Ocean Predators" I expected some action too. These predators (mainly sharks) are indeed beautiful but all you will see is that they are swimming around peacefully. You will also hear a little bit about their hunting techniques, but not see them do anything, instead you will see size, weight and bite force comparisons. So you see my problem? If I'm interested in some shark's size, or how it looks, I can easily visit it's wikipedia page. Remember how David Attenborough showed us a polar bear hunting? His white face was covered with blood. That is part of their natural beauty. But this movie is like watching fighter jets being towed on the ground instead of fighting in the air.

Not a very informative shark documentary

I just watched this 5 min ago (not in the 3d though I feel I must add) and I have seldom been so annoyed by the facts given . For an example where they were talking about the great white's biting force and when they continuously showed the teeth of the sand tiger shark when talking about the teeth of individual species of sharks .

I'm no expert on sharks , but I do see them as a hobby of sorts, and this just blew most of what I've read and seen about them so far right out the window . (I may be giving an expression that it's A lot of errors when in reality there were simply enough to annoy me)

I rate this 4.5/10

P.S. They also didn't show a single shot of any of the "deadly predators" feeding which struck me as very odd when it's supposed to be about top notch predators and as they put it "the kings of the sea".
