 Next best thing to being there! January 17, 2009

As a half-century scuba diver who has been diving Fiji, the Great Barrier Reef, Moorea and Tiputa Pass in Rangiroa over the years, I can vouch for the authenticity and genuine beauty of this splendid documentary, as well as for the unfortunate reality of the threats to these areas. In particular, we have been diving Fiji's Bligh Waters for years, most often with Rusi Vulakoro (also an excellent singer) who appears prominently in this production. Rusi and Jean-Michel Cousteau demonstrate some of what they are doing to preserve this paradise.
The McGillivray-Freeman production and Michele and photography is top notch, and our friends Rob and Cat, owners of the liveaboard dive boat NAI'A used for the filming, guided Howard and Michele Hall to all our favorite sites - their cinematography is superb, in spite of the major problems faced by using the huge and unwieldy IMAX system. Those interested in scuba diving, some of the world's best dive spots and the state of the ocean will love this DVD - and come away convinced we should never have called this planet, 70.78% of which is covered by the world's oceans and water, "Earth."
UTTERLY AMAZING! December 2, 2008

I just ordered this from Amazon because of the selling price of $11.00 free shipping. I'm SO glad I took the chance. This is an AMAZING blu-ray disc. The quality of the sound is as good, if not better, than the picture quality. Fantastic underwater photography will have you in awe. If you're into this sort of thing, this is a MUST have for your blu-ray collection.

since having HD TV and Blu-Ray player. This is the DVD I have been looking for.
This DVD really makes 1080P outstanding in color and sharpness. I have had Planet Earth for sometime which is also very good HD. Coral Reef really is a good show to
let one know just how good Blu-Ray HD is.
This is the DVD I show to new viewers to Blu-Ray HD.

Magnificent underwater scenery May 7, 2009

This was a wonderful documentary on the problems encountered today with reef destruction, causes and recommendations for cure. The underwater scenery was spectacular and really brought home the destructive forces at work and how it can be stopped.
A must have for Bluray collectors November 10, 2009

O my gosh ! within the first 5 mins of watching it, it became surprisingly clear that this is one of the best blurays out there ! the perfect music, the breathtakingly colorful video on bluray, the wonderful narration...wow ! For just for $14, it puts to shame many of the other documentaries on bluray out there that are more expensive but deliver much less !
