Product Description
Journey 80 million years back in time to an age when mighty dinosaurs dominated the land and an equally astonishing assortment of ferocious creatures swam, hunted, and fought for survival beneath the vast, mysterious prehistoric seas. Stunning, photo-realistic imagery re-creates the perilous underwater realm of two young, dolphin-sized marine reptiles called Dolichorhynchops, or Dollies, and follows their incredible journey through waters ruled by some of the most awesome predators ever to prowl the Earth's oceans. Interweaving ground-breaking fossil finds from around the globe with cutting-edge computer generated re-creations, National Geographic's powerful storytelling immerses you in the life or death drama of an age when monsters ruled the seas! Narrated by Liev Schreiber with original music from Peter Gabriel and The Footnote.

I came to this not expecting an awful lot. These sort of documentaries (other than relatively big money BBC productions) tend to have poor graphics and sporadic information. This one I personally found to be very good. The graphics were very good and in my mind easily rivals the Walking With Dinosaurs series, though falls short of the recent Planet Dinosaur (this was made years before it to be fair).
The information is a bit sparse and at 40 minutes or so it is short, though the price isn't too high. All in all, it depends on whether your willing to pay for 40 minutes worth of fairly good graphics of mosasaurs and such-like. The 'story' feels a bit cut short and this again ties in with the short running time. Possibly made up to 60 minutes with a bit more information this could be a great show. As it is I'd declare it as good; no worse, no better.
If you have any questions feel free to pop them in the comments area and I'll try to answer as quick (and well) as I can.

As a child this would have kept me from sleeping, not out of fear, but facination. Frightening but so facinating. I think it remarkable how we continue to find out more and more about this period in Earths history. We see a slick fast paced description tha takes our breath away. However years of painstaking meticulous research are required to give us this perspective and an insight into our planets past.
