If you've seen BBC's Planet Earth, don't think that you've already seen this film. It is much different. It is an attempt to understand the necessity to preserve and appreciate life underwater that we may not even know exists.
Narrated by Pierce Brosnan, this epic film explores the unknown abyss of what many people only dream to see in their lifetime. This film is full of incredible shots that seem almost impossible to get and that will literally make you say, "Wow!" But watch out, because if you are tired, this film may relax you enough that you have to keep your eyes from closing.
The only negative thing that I could say about this film is that certain parts are a little TOO relaxing. These parts go for minutes at a time without any narration--which would be fine if the visuals weren't making me sleepy. But maybe it was because I was already kind of tired when I saw this film.
However, the film took a PG rating, and instead of letting it hinder the movie, the filmmakers really made it work, and the movie was, I think, better for it.
Overall Grade: A-
