    I got this movie for Christmas. I saw a trailer for it a long time ago and I couldn't believe it, luckily someone remembered and got it for me.

    It's pretty much about how Japan had this crazy cover up so they could slaughter thousands of dolphin a year for illegitimate reasons. They would corner them and force them into coves where they were sure no one would see what they were doing. A team of people setup high def cameras in a few locations to record what happens... So depressing. :( All you see is the water turn red.

    Has anyone else seen this?
    Any updates that since the movie was made?

    PS:
    It's been a while since I've been over here. My maintenance company has been very busy and I havent been spending much time online. 3Reef is looking great!!

    You got this on DVD?
    I didn't think it was even out in the theater yet!

    I have posted on it a bit on this forum. It is on my to-see list.

    Glad you like the new site, however I am not and changing some stuff hopefully for the better - you can read about that on the homepage.

    Well .. I didn't want to say this because it kind of contradicts how I feel about this whole thing- but I "obtained" a copy of this movie and me not paying to see it seems wrong.

    But- if you say the movie isnt in theaters yet then I'll believe you. Maybe the copy I have is from over sees. If you are interested Matt "obtaining" a copy, PM me.

    I plan on buying this movie when I can.
