Reviews for Whaledreamers
The September 11 segment is one of the clumsiest works of montage you're likely to see.
A thought provoking film that touches on issues of climate change as well as the killing of whales and includes compelling images of the great mammals themselves as they respond to the calling
Whaledreamers is clearly a labor of love and a call to action, but it's undermined by the sheer volume of topics it tackles in addition to the main subject.
There's maybe an excess of hugging in the film, but that doesn't really detract from what are some quite amazing and moving moments.
Scattershot, often beautiful to look at and just as often earnest to the point of self-parody.
