Pros: gorgeous images and sweeping audio; an enjoyable nature documentary for the whole family
Cons: high list price for such a brief film

After saturating the world with astounding footage of nature in its infinite majesty, television documentary series like Planet Earth and Life have made it difficult for other nature documentaries to astonish. What can documentarians do to up the ante for a viewer? Well, how about adding 3D to the mix? And what if the documentary has a narrator that’s a member of the community being surveyed? In the case of Jean-Jacques Mantello’s Ocean Wonderland, both of these motifs are utilized and to good effect most of the time. It’s hard to go wrong when showing us the many wonders of the undersea world, and putting us right into the world in three dimensions adds another bit of majestic awe to the experience. If the narration is occasionally too precious or a bit lacking in detailed information about what we’re seeing, it serves as an easy entry for families with people of all ages to view the film comfortably.
