This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

Documentaries help us change perspectives. Or, at least, they should. This one, for instance, achieved its goal and its audience (hopefully). It is approachable, making people realize the impact of their unconscious decisions and, therefore, they become more aware of their actions and start to shift plans. It's hard to believe, but true, that through visual example humans are more willing to change behaviour than from receiving the same information through speech or from having it written down. We don't predict the future, we shape it by determination and desire to strive for a better day.

This film is an eye-opening education for all the world to see! A global disaster has begun and this amazing documentary brings awareness and solutions to save this planet and our most valuable resource, the oceans. Please sit for 90-minutes and learn about this very important issue, and find ways that you can be part of the solution, instead of part of the problem.

You can toss this one into the same garbage bin as Inconvenient Truth was tossed into. So much speculation and tunnel vision that it's obvious it's agenda motivated. *Definitely* not scientific!

I mainly enjoyed the documentary, could be a bit more well produced though. It should be, in my opinion, more about the plastic in the ocean per se, the consequences, direct and indirect, the study cases (and there are thousands of those), as it was in the first part, and less about the human self-destruction with garbage (2nd part).All in all this documentary is a 50% of good scientific proof of the damage plastic is to our environment/our possible future, and 50% of opinion journalism. I don't dislike the opinions, but most are uninformed and there are some scientific errors here and there.Still I give it a positive review, as it can achieve its goal into showing people what our mindless action can do to the environment and, in the midle/long term, to us! I would recommend it, but be aware of some sensasionalistic opinions.
