One of the best

"I own several of these HD Landscape style Blu-Ray's and I just wanted to share that while everyone loves each of them, this underwater one in particular is what makes people want to sit down and just watch it like a movie. All of these discs are great to have on, perhaps with a low volume, and in the background. It provides a great ambient atmosphere and they are all very relaxing."

Good quality, but scenes move to quickly

"this DVD is fairly good quality and looks good on the screen, but they have edited it too quickly. It would have been nice if they lingered for awhile on each scene, but instead just when you are looking at the fish or undersea item, they change scenes. Sort of like a music video, which is not why i bought the DVD"

Better than a saltwater tank

"I love this film. The film makers take time to really get the feel of the ocean and its inhabitants. The H.D quality is amazing, it's like looking into a really big saltwater aquarium, but you don't have to clean this one or feed the fish. If you want to show off your new high def television, pop this in and they will stop in their tracks. And the cost is really cheap, especially considering where they went to film, the airfare alone would break you. Highly recommend this one......"

"Purchased this DVD to see the capabilities of my new Blu-Ray player. It's enjoyable, but not the greatest thing I've ever seen. The colors in most of the scenes are a little washed out - probably do to the filming. A diver myself, I understand the affects of bright overhead sunlight and the colors of coral. This was apparently shot on a marginal day (or several scenes were shot on cloudy days). That said, the reproduction of the cloudy days underwater scenes is very realistic. Washed out purples, washed out charcoals, washed out yellows are all symptomatic of a cloudy day diving. There are some great scenes for color - don't get me wrong. The scenes with lots of little fish definitely show off the blu-ray capability better than scenes with 1 or 2 large items in the view. I give it a 3..."
