Sharkwater: Extinction

"Shows how important sharks are, in a highly emotive way" (9/10)

See full review of this compared to the original at reasea dot org :)

Just like there's "documentaries" out there about the near-extinction of polar bears, I've also seen and read scientific accounts that polar bears are actually at record high population numbers, as with sharks are increasing in numbers.

It's all how much perspective bias the "facts" are twisted to fit the intended dialogue.

I gave a "3" for some nice underwater camera shots.

I didn't watch the first Sharkwater from 2006 so I couldn't compare it to this one. I guess the first one was lesser depressing to watch than this one because that's the overall feeling I had whilst watching Sharkwater Extinction, a depressive feeling. I lost faith in humanity a long time ago, so even if everybody would watch this gripping documentary I don't think it would change anything. Humans are parasites, greedy and selfish, the only thing that counts is their cosy way of life and nothing will make them change their behaviour. There are some nice shots in this documentary but most of the time it's just a depressive hard story to swallow. Some scenes are in Spanish and not subtitled so difficult to understand for everybody. I searched for the subtitles online but just couldn't find it. Sometimes the sound is just too mumbling so I didn't get all the conversations and that's a minor negative point to this documentary. I applaud the effort of everybody that tries to change the world, those idealists that didn't give up hope, but in my case I just think it's too late to change anything. We're heading to a new world catastrophe and nothing will change that. Maybe we just deserve another mass extinction as we are not worth living on this planet.

Mean it was a documentary so it was educational. I believe many of the high reviews may be because he died making the movie, but it is a solid 6.9

This film is so exciting and fascinating. I absolutely loved it and now have a new appreciation for sharks. Everyone should see this, it will give you a fresh look at not only sharks but all ocean life. Kudos to Rob Stewart for all his hard work and I hope his mission lives on forever.
