Oceans is a 2010 French-American nature documentary picture by Jacques Perrin, distributed in the United States by Disney nature. It will be released on April 22, 2010, to coincide with Earth Day. According the official website, the picture explores the oceans of the Earth's surface and the mysteries that lie beneath. It is Disney nature’s second release following Earth in 2009.
Budgeted at 50 million euros, it was filmed in over 50 different places and took four years to picture. The movie is a high-quality filming documentary that includes ocean animals. It reflects the need to respect nature and displays the unconstructive effect of human synergy on animals, to the point of favoring the disappearance of species . Nearly three-quarters of the Earth’s surface is enclosed by water and OCEANS brashly accounts the thrills that lie beneath. Narrated by Pierce Brosnan and featuring striking never-before-seen images captured by the latest underwater technology, OCEANS provides an unprecedented look beneath the sea in a powerful motion picture that unfolds on April 22, 2010
