The mission scenes are stunning, the rest is kinda pedestrian
A fantastic documentary that also manages to be an engaging character study. There are some spy elements to the movie, pretty unexpected
An important documentary giving light to atrocious acts with consequences for both animals and humans. As always big industries being evil
Extremely tough watch, particularly the last 10 minutes. Vital documentary though, very effective and moving
I loved the comparison to Ocean's movies. Without this brave work, a horrifying issue may have never reached the public eye.
Quite an affecting documentary. Doesn’t hold many punches. Might make you cry or make you mad or both.
A documentary about saving dolphins from slaughter. Good but wouldn’t watch a second time
Great filmmaking that provides a better viewing than most fictional films. The topic is obviously also very important.
It’s an emotionally charged documentary revealing the practices of dolphin hunters in Japan.
A fascinating ’whodunit’ tale that documents something we really should be aware of. Horrible subject. Great film.
