Monster der Tiefe - Im Reich der Urzeitmonster

Another enjoyable romp with Nigel the British, intrepid time-traveller/wildlife expert! Much like previous shows, it's a mix of natural history, science-fiction and drama, which explains the subject matter really effectively. If there were shows like this on TV when I was younger, it definitely would have educated and inspired me much more than dry text books.

The CGI was first-rate at the time it was made (the Walking With Dinosaurs team) and may look a little dated now, but don't let that put you off. Ignore the negative reviews from unimaginative morons and enjoy!

One year after Chased by Dinosaurs Mr Marven goes yet again in a time traveling adventure ,this guy should be pair up with the Doctor ,they would be a great team. To the main subject "Sea Monsters" is a three part series ,in which Nigel goes in to the most dangerous of prehistory in order to show what creatures ones called the ocean their kingdom and some of them are quit odd ,for a lack of a better word. It was a great experience to see this real life leviathans swim around and the way the crew tries to study them was not amazing ,but nevertheless a interesting subject ,which will have you hocked( no pun intended).

The reason why I did not score higher is the ending ,which is a cliff hanger and in all honesty, it did not need to be that way ,although if they continue the series and show me what happened it would be better from my point of view. Not that it is diminish the quality of that series , as its on I have seen it about four times ,like with all the Walking with program and still I am going to recommended it for those ,who want to watch a quality documentary, which unfortunately are a thing of a past I fear. Happy bench watch to everyone.

This doc is atmospheric, interesting, and covers a lot of ground. The CGI is simple but effective. There is one very memorable scene with enormous reptiles (Liopleurodons) feeding on an 80-foot fish (Leedsichthys) in underwater near-darkness... epic for sure... and there are some other great moments.

The host, Nigel, does his job well. This 3-episode series takes the approach of transporting the narrator through time to actually swim alongside the creatures he's reporting on. The script of his exploits to this end is... okay. It's somewhat weak a lot of the time ... but the topic is engaging enough to balance it out.

Overall, a solid 7/10, maybe even higher. Worth a watch!

I really liked this 'documentary.' I saw it on animal Planet a couple nights ago, and I must admit it was very fun! The 'movie' stars Nigel Marvin, who goes exploring in the seven most dangerous and ancient seas. We start off with mere sea scorpions and go up to Megalodons! The movie plays itself as if the monsters were real and an actual threat to the host. Another interesting thing in the movie was that the host walked around and interacted with the animals as if he were Steve Irwin or Jeff Corwin.

I actually thought it was thrilling and educational at the same time! If you watch Animal Planet on a regular basis, watch "Chased By Sea Monsters." 8/10

Expected the same as, in line with the original Walking with Dinosaurs. However it is spoiled by the idiotic antics of the presenter, a wannabe actor.

Narrator is excellent, her voice reminds of Bettany Hughes (Historian, Spartans).
