When pushed to their breaking points (and beyond), these conflicted characters break into song, singing along'sometimes lip-synching, sometimes in full voice'with the music lodged in their subconscious.

Dive in! A sea full of wonders awaits. Famed oceanic filmmaker Howard Hall (Into the Deep) guides this immersive adventure that lets you swim alongside some of the most exotic creatures of the planet.
Johnny Depp and Kate Winslet provide the narration. And an unusual array of finned and scaled stars are ready to steal every scene.
Among them: Green Sea Turtles who gather off Kona so that Surgeonfish can strip harmful algae from their shells... an ominous, predatory Humboldt Squid that changes color four times per second like a flashing strobe light... an underdog Mantis Shrimp, whose claws have the speed of a 22-caliber bullet, in battle against a hungry octopus (the shrimp wins!).
So many creatures. So many amazing stories. Sea them all.

Step Brothers movie review Some people may think Ferrell is just up to his old schtick, which I can see what they mean, but I love it. He was in his element with this movie, and it was much better than some of his other roles as of late. Read Entire Story »
Horton Hears a WHO! Movie Review I think what I found most refreshing about this movie is that it took me a while to figure out which characters Jim Carey and Steve Carell were playing.
