Journey to the warm waters and shining white sands of the Bahamas, where the swimmy smiling dolphins play and communicate with each other and with humans.

    Dolphins seems intended for a youthful fieldtrip type audience, but skillful filmmaking sets it apart from the typical wildlife documentary.

    Overall, pleasant and fun, it'll keep a smile plastered on your face for the first five minutes, before it dips a bit into documentary pace.
