    Time Out

  • The footage is spectacular, the colors electric, the life aquatic trippier than anything you'll see in even the most wildly imaginative animated fare.

    Steven Rea

    Philadelphia Inquirer

  • Strictly fodder for the preteen set, Under the Sea 3D, the latest IMAX deep-sea-dive exploration (brought to you by the fisheye's point of view), is expectedly rudimentary but a splendor to watch.

    Slant Magazine

  • It's impossible not to be wowed by some of the images in Under the Sea 3D, 
the coolest of which are a nice 
reminder that, even in the age of CG wizardry, the best special effects still come straight from Mother Nature.

    Entertainment Weekly

  • Under the Sea 3D is a beautiful reminder that movies can take us to places we've never been before. There are still worlds to conquer out there that don't require the gussying up of CGI effects to hold our attention.

    great documentary of the ocean and wonderful narration by Jim Carrey

    The 3D effects were pretty good, especially sitting near the front. It was not a climatic type film, just informational.
