Tiburones al ataque

I have just registered with IMDb because I felt I really needed to add my comments about this movie. It is so disjointed and just doesn't work. My daughter picked it up at Blockbuster but it was so hard going. It was very slow and random scenes kept coming into it with no real explanation. I kept expecting it to pick up but it never really did. The voices are OK and the animation is good, just the story line and switching between scenes that doesn't work at all. I think Animals United matches it as being a very poor film....disappointed. If you are looking for a friendship/environmental animation, then go straight for A Turtles Tale, by far a much better film....especially in 3D!

Love the message of preserving our oceans, but it lacks the flow and coherence of higher budget animated movies. Probably recommend for slightly older children (5+).

Julius and Pup are playing on the sea floor when two young human divers grab the shark eggs. Pup tries and fails to stop them. He becomes depressed over his failure. Julius tries to catch chicken on the beach and is almost stranded. Later, he's caught by fishermen looking for shark fins and barely escapes. Pup tries to recruit turtle Murtle and octopus Octo on a mission to rescue the shark eggs.

This Malaysian animated film tries to jump up to the major leagues. The difference between this and a movie like Finding Nemo is more than the technical animation. The animation is slightly inferior but one can live with that. It's the muddled story that is the most problematic. Hollywood has a near century of experience telling stories on the big screen in less than two hours. That's what is missing in this movie. If Pup's journey is the key, then the other characters should serve him in the story. The story becomes muddled and it loses the rooting interesting of the audience. As a technical exercise, this holds a little bit of promise if the aim is a lot lower. It does need a good story teller to clean this up.

Even though I did enjoy it Parents need to know that despite some bright, colorful animation, and a few appealing heroes, Sea Level is filled with dark images, eerie music, bullying used as humor, scarily-mutated sea creatures, an abusive human father, and characters constantly in fear for their lives. Viewers, especially young ones, will find the film's often disconnected structure and abrupt scene endings hard to follow. If Sea Level is meant as a humorous, cautionary tale about protecting the planet and its oceans, that message is as random and murky as the story itself and the few humorous sequences don't qualify it as watchable.

This was very disappointing. The animation and script are both lacking, making for boring viewing. I watched this with my 2 boys (ages 9 and 7) and couldn't help comparing it with it's much more sophisticated (and funnier) brother "Finding Nemo". Having watched many animations over the years, I've come to expect a script that appeals to both children AND the parents or adults who accompany them to the cinema. This film was so unfunny and cliché, plus it took time to get going, with lots of scenes that didn't seem to add anything to the plot. In fact, a lot of the story is disjointed, with no setting of the characters and how they relate to one another, or why the main character is on his quest. I would avoid this unless you've watched just about everything else and are left without much choice...
