Like Earth before it, Oceans was released by Disneynature on Earth Day and offers a breathtaking, unique look at our world. Narrated by Pierce Brosnan, this documentary proudly explores the titular entity that makes up three-quarters of the Earth, as well as the creatures —big and small, beautiful and strange — that inhabit it. Moviegoers will experience a truly new and different perspective of the Oceans because of the film’s innovative technology. While the visuals and the music are stunning, however, the narration and story are not. Brosnan is a bit blasé, and the information on the oceans and its inhabitants only skims the surface.
