I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much

Sadly Over-hyped

I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.

It is a paradox to present facts in a subjective way, unless the standpoint of the film is not to show the facts. The essence of both salvation and killing is a continuation of human self-identification. Therefore, I do not believe that what is concealed in sorrow, how much is the human savior-like vanity. Of course, this film records the dangers and costs of the crew. However, almost all the madness begins with the obsession with attitude and giving.

Why we can eat cows,pigs and chicken ,even in south east Asia people dogs , this movie is just make Japanese people make so bad. And they just a propaganda for people never seen the slaughterhouse I guess

I've had a day to think about it. There were just so many emotions that were stirred up after watching that movie, I couldn't possibly put it into a coherent statement. First let me say that The Cove is a lot more than a movie about mean old Japanese people killing cute, innocent dolphins. Don't get me wrong, it's the part of the film that will tug at your heartstrings the most. The Cove is about government cover-ups, greed, and the future of our ecosystem. What many people don't know is that a lot of the dolphins are killed for their meat. The Japanese government says it's for food (just like we eat cows) yet the people they talked to in Japan didn't even know about that dolphins are being killed and eaten. The other thing is that dolphin meat has high traces of mercury in it and can pose very serious health risks. The Japanese government is also trying to get a law that prohibits them for fishing for whales overturned. To do this they need a certain amount of votes. In order to get those votes, they go to poverty stricken countries (mainly in the Caribbean) and give them money for their vote. It's disgusting. I've been on a lot of cruises and everywhere we go you see "swim with the dolphin" excursions. Although I've never been on one, my friend has. They are a huge business and I will never look at them the same. By the way, an average dolphin excursion can cost up to $175. I think the heart of the film is Richard Barry, the one time dolphin trainer from the hit TV show Flipper, who has now become an activist. Barry carries a personal sense of guilt and responsibility that can literally be seen on every line of his face. The other cool thing about the film is that it almost unfolds like a spy/heist film. In order to film inside the cove, they need to secretly get cameras inside there. In order to do this, Barry assembles a team of the best people in the business. I'm not quite sure why you shouldn't watch this film. It made me want to become an activist. I feel like I should be doing more and it really bugs me.

This wasn't overly entertaining although I think it is good that it was made, because it exposes the killing of dolphins in a cruel way. The cruel way that the dolphins are killed is to me more concerning than the fact that they are actually killed. That said, as the documentary correctly shows, dolphins are very intelligent which in my view makes it morally problematic to eat them at all. The fact that they are cute is morally irrelevant.Other than not being overly entertaining, the problem I have with this movie is that I think they were spinning a fair bit of bull****, like when that guy said that dolphins are voluntary breathers and can choose to commit suicide via choosing not to breathe. I looked this up on the net and there are researchers saying this is proved to be factually incorrect. Knowing that the film makers were prepared to portray bull**** like this which runs against science, you wonder how objective the whole thing is in some aspects, such as how the movie portrayed the Japanese people.
