Nos océans

The content of this show is exceptional, matching the standards set by the best nature documentaries. The visuals are stunning, the colors vivid, and a lot of rare scenes captured with exceptional sharpness.

There's some footage shot with the camera apparently attached to the marine wildlife itself, which is an interesting and uncommon technique for mainstream documentaries.

The biggest letdown is the voice narration. This is the first documentary narrated by Barack Obama that I've watched, and I was not impressed. As a public orator giving political speeches, he's obviously very effective and inspirational. But his delivery of this show's narration felt dispassionate. It fails to convey the wonder & magic of the content, and makes the overall experience quite flat.

Visually is stunning and a great documentary to watch but I am just not able to like the narration from Barack Obama.... I just doesn't sound exciting at all... More like someone reading the newspaper and trying to make an effort to make it exciting but it simply isn't. I think it was a bad choice even though the name stand out.

English is not my native language so I switched to German and thank God the voice is exciting and nice to listen to. In German 10/10 but in English I just can't listen to the voice without feeling a bit disappointed considering that there are so many great "voices " out there for documentaries , so a 7/10.

I do not agree with the criticism that Obama's narration is boring. I loved his narration. The knowledge of the production is amazing and the photography is astounding. In addition I truly enjoyed the music. I would highly recommend this series. My only criticism is the anthropomorphic references.

My daughter and I watched this together and looked up some oceanic details while watching. We only watched one or two at a time but still an enjoyable series.

I do not have a lot more to say except that I did learn a lot and appreciate our oceans and the amazing creatures who live there even more so than before.

The visuals are stunning, many never seen before. I laud Obama for his support and voiceover. Even more appreciation goes to the people who designed these underwater equipments. Lastly, the highest level of appreciation for people on the ground. The overall effort and outcome is superhuman, I'm amazed sitting at home and watching it on netflix as to how this coverage is humanly possible, special appreciation to the southern ocean episode. A must watch for everyone, to induce a sense of self righteousness to preserve our oceans & environment and keep it clean. Earth is too magnificent to destroy for temporary joy/ gains.

The filmography in "Our Oceans" is downright stunning!! . Absolutely breathtaking shots, though some of it looks like it was combined with artificial intelligence at times. It is sometimes hard to tell what is real and what is not, but overall absolutely amazing. I'm in awe that people and cameras are able to get that close enough. And speaking of cameras- they must have cost a fortune!! I've never seen anything with images that clear!

My biggest issue with this documentary is the narrator. Barack Obama is boring, and the inflections in his voice are all wrong. Was David Attenborough busy on another project? Obama really kinda ruined this film.
