Variety
Jaw-dropping, sumptuous visuals, a lush George Fenton score, state-of-the-art technology and some of the oddest creatures ever seen without recourse to artificial stimulants. - 83
Entertainment Weekly
Full of splendidly shot wonders. - 80
Los Angeles Times
Numerous films have explored undersea life, but few as comprehensively and as consistently compelling as Deep Blue, by the creators of the "Blue Planet" TV series. - 80
Washington Post
This is as good a visual treat as you and your kids can expect. - 70
The A.V. Club
Deep Blue is a thrilling film, but not a thoughtful one; it'd be right at home on an IMAX screen, or possibly as the pretty, polished, and vaguely empty Successories poster it closely resembles. - 70
L.A. Weekly
Deep Blue runs just shy of 90 minutes, and this pathetic landlubber of a movie critic must confess to growing restless here and there, an example of how quickly awestruck wonder can turn to apathy. - 60
The New York Times
Much of what the filmmakers and their team of cinematographers capture is undeniably remarkable, but their overt attachment to certain scenes can make watching a chore. - 60
TV Guide Magazine
This stunningly photographed documentary captures extraordinary images of ocean-based life.
