Great for kids!
While I agree that this documentary is lacking in substance, it is perfect for children. I actually bought it for my 18 month old son who is completely enthralled by sea life and he adores it. It's rather short, but entertaining and I think it was worth it for the price. I'd rather have my child watch this than cartoons!

Dissapointingly short
This is really a short DVD. I was expecting much more. It's not even the 35 minutes they claim it has. It's only 32 min on my player. Not that three minutes make a big difference, but the overall content is not so great either. However, the picture quality is excellent and the scenery is superb, this I must admit. The other dissapointing thing is the "Special Features" section. The only special feature they show is a theatrical trailer to other IMAX films (about 3 minutes in length.........)Go figure!!! Ocean Oasis, on the contrary is a superb production with excellent "Special Bonuses". Don't buy "Into the Deep", if you're hesitating. It's not worth the high price.

Life Under The Sea....
Very nice documentary movie, i like'd the begining of the movie very much... very impressive.
Try this if you like watching nature scan and kinds of creatures of the sea in there natural home, the sea.

DON'T LISTEN TO OTHERS - THIS IS THE BOMB!
I can't explain the other two reviews in this column, but I am a conniseur of this type of material and this is one of the most perfect marriages of music and scenery ever to grace my dvd player. It is a deeply brilliant look at the kelp forrest and it's inhabitants, and will put you in a trance that lasts long after the film ends. Trust me - if u have ANY interest in this material - get this NOW. On the same level, WINGED MIGRATION is a must as well.

Like a runway model...
...this DVD may be beautiful, but it is utterly lacking in substance. With not nearly enough meat to warrant a DVD, Into the Deep runs like a long teaser for a much more in-depth and expansive exploration of underwater life, deep sea exploration, particular species of sea life...just about anything except what you might see in your first scuba lesson, if you were lucky enough to go on that lesson in these particular California depths. Leave this one on the proverbial shelf.

soothing deep
Into the deep is a nice soothing film with a gentle score. The opening sequence of the Califonian kelps is breathtaking. The rest of the film comprises a wide range of colourful species, a damaged shark, fish, squid, crabs, seals and more fish. The film moves at a slow pace and you do feel like skipping a few scenes to more action-oreintated sequemces. But it never happens, and the film just sildes gradually from one species to another. The music and the tender feminine voiceover might make you go to sleep half way through. It's that soothing! Also, some of you might find it uninvolving mid-way through because of the slow -pace, and the music. Overall, a nice film for those who like to chill and observe the beauty of underwater life, with gentle music and a cute voiceover.
