Around the Web

  • Our Oceans is a gentle documentary to watch with the whole family; it shows the circle of life in a palatable yet not overly sanitized way. And its message about protecting the planet is there throughout but never feels like too much. Instead, beautiful visuals lead the way, while the informational gems are wrapped up in quirky anthropomorphic descriptions. All designed to connect us to these stunning creatures we share the world with.

  • Our Oceans is a fascinating look at the environment that takes up the vast majority of our planet, the ecosystems that exist under the surface, and the manmade threats the oceans face.
    Joel Keller on Decider
  • The series is first and foremost jaw-dropping. As much as its starry narrator will grab the headlines, the photography is the star here. It is crisp, intimate and shows you the familiar in unfamiliar ways. It’s especially good at demonstrating scale.
    Stuart Heritage on The Guardian
