This made for kids film shows the ocean in its glorious beauty. Though the animation seemed a little silly, even adults like me can appreciate all the interesting sea life. Everyone who enjoys understanding our world will like these under and above water scenes.

Important documentary and I'm including it even though I chose not to watch it myself. From the container: A documentary on confessed pedophile priest Oliver O'Grady and attempts by the Catholic Church to cover up his actions. Includes interviews with O'Grady and his victims.

Al Gore presents a slide show he helped develop on the worsening effects of human cuased climate change. Though I believe he's telling an accurate tale, I found the presentation rather boring. Yes, I see the importance of the topic, I wonder how they could have punched it up to entertain just a tad more. Have a watch, tell me what you think.

Leonardo DiCaprio presents another environmental tale mostly of global warming but related to pollution too. I liked the special features section with scientists talking about creating color from optical properties rather than chemicals. I still wonder why these programs don't really give the average person some concrete actions we can take. They say stuff but it seems so far off and difficult.
