3.0 out of 5 stars Educational But Not Entertaining, 22 Oct 2008
By Ursula K. Raphael "Gideon's Mom" (Michigan, USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
The special effects were amazing, a lot of information was given, wonderful narration, and the storyline was interesting.

However, I can't bring myself to give more than three stars because the staged paleontologist scenes were too cheesy for me...I don't know if better actors would have made a difference. Just when we were getting into the scenes with the prehistoric creatures, it would cut away to a reacreation of how the fossils were found - it was very distracting.

I think maybe they should have separated those scenes from the main storyline, and offered the fossil information as a special feature for the DVD.

If you prefer the set-up of DVDs such as Chased By Sea Monsters or Before There Were Dinosaurs, you might have the same problem trying to sit through this DVD.

We bought this DVD for our three-year old son who is fascinated with prehistoric sea monsters...he loves the parts featuring the creatures, but kept wandering off whenever they cut to the staged "people" scenes. That kind of defeated the purpose of buying this DVD.

4.0 out of 5 stars thrilling, 26 April 2009
By A. S. Akhtar (LONDON) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I really love watching prehistoric documentaries based on these sea creatures so I had high expectations from the Nat Geo team. I can say that I was not disappointed. The story based on a particular species is clever as it allows the viewer to imagine the perils of living ithe seas at that time as well as showing a fantastic range of creatures that the said species would encounter. The visual effects are stunning with some eye dropping sequences, especially the tylosaurus hunting. The film is interjected with make believe paleontologists excavating fossils, so there's flash forward sequences of then and now images. This is fine but some viewers may find this a tad too irritating as it does happen throughout the whole film. My biggest gripe however is the time. It is just too short-maybe becuase I loved it too much and just wanted more. Also, there should have been more creatures in it-but that's just me. Overall, this is a visually stunning piece of work, could have been longer, with less human interjections, but the good definitely outweighs the negatives. Get it if your a fan of prehistoric sea monsters-it's a must.
