L'Atlantide a-t-elle vraiment existé ?

Hollywood legend James Cameron and filmmaker Simcha Jacobovici set out on an adventure to find the lost city of Atlantis using Greek philosopher Plato as a virtual treasure map.

And it's not that they found Atlantis, the lost city, once the legendary fictional city of Plato, but it actually existed one day, well at least that's what the evidence points to, I'm very happy, because I was rooting for the success of the troupe, and that that madness, violence, wouldn't it be a waste of money and time... That story, right, a dream in the mind, and a backpack on the back and a lot of willpower to carry it out, and here we have the reward... I liked it...

The movie is nothing but gross conjecture for the entire length of the film. Will have to have eye surgery due to excessive amount of times I had to roll my eyes. Waste of time

Very interesting look at the origins / location of the city of Atlantis, based on the writings of Plato.

James Cameron only had a cameo in this, despite getting top billing. What this documentary does do, is analyse all the supposed locations of Atlantis, it's colonies across the Mediterranean and into the Atlantic.

It does systemically look at each proposed location, with some archaeological work being done, building a clearer picture of the civilisation until they reach a satisfying (to a degree) conclusion, with evidence, as to where the destroyed city should be.

They need to make a follow-up where they carry out some archaeological work in the final location!!

This doco is nothing but stupid speculation. They are looking at all the wrong places, trying to make unfitting pieces of puzzle fit. I went into this documentary film with great anticipation only to be disappointed.

Being in the Naval engineering profession I know people who have all the answers Cameron is looking for. They have tried tooth and nail to contact him and did not even receive a short reply as courtesy. Arrogance and celebrity-godship has blinded James Cameron to the point he is only in touch with celebrities and so called celeb-experts.

Used to be a fan of James Cameron; no longer.

Other then bringing on John Cameron for a cameo almost all the information is a repeat or rehash of the most probable theories on the fall of ATLANTIS. The most plausible of them being that the Minoan Island Trading Empire on THERA, now SANTORINI was built upon a dormant Volcano. This erupted with a massive explosion and venting of the caldera which subsequently collapsed. Thus creating a massive Tsunami which inundated the eastern Mediterranean. This occurred sometime during the 16th Centuries B.C.E. The eruption took some time to develop its full fury, so the Island appears to have been evacuated prior to the major eruption. The eruption on the Volcanic Explosivity Index was at the level Six (6), possibly as high as a Seven (7).

There are several other candidates, starting with MALTA, then keep moving West. Even beyond the PILLARS OF HERCULES (Straits Of Gibraltar). To take that theory seriously you would have to believe that ATLANTIS was best represented by George Pal's ATLANTIS; The Lost Continent (1961). A enjoyable fantasy film, but hardly science. If you have seen the other documentaries on ATLANTIS you might want to skip this one. If not watch it. Those who have, watch the movie instead. Its hokey, but fun.
