Narrated by Daryl Hannah and presented in stunning IMAX 3-D, Dolphins and Whales takes viewers right into the underwater habitats of wild dolphins and majestic belugas. A chance to watch a Humpback mother nurture her newborn calf, gaze into the eyes of singing male Humpbacks, swim alongside the mighty orca, and share an unforgettable moment with the friendly manatee all allow the viewer to truly understand the daily lives of these amazing ocean-dwellers, and the opportunity to witness their remarkable communication methods and social interactions highlight the many commonalities between humankind and our friends beneath the ocean surface. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Michael Esposito, Chicago Tribune
If it makes some people be more careful about recycling and conservation, great. But filmmakers can't rely on the flash of IMAX 3D for success.

Mike Scott, Times-Picayune
You want underwater scenes of staggering grace and beauty? You got it. You want scintillating narration? Well, you might be swimming in the wrong ocean where that's concerned.

Rarely have images been so breathtaking.
