Never heard of this documentary, stumbled upon it on Netflix streaming last night and watched it. Highly recommend it. Eye opening to say the least. Made me want to go out and murder a bunch of SeaWorld executives.

For those who don't know, its about the horrific conditions the killer whales deal with at SeaWorld, focuses mainly on Tilikin, the whale who killed that trainer back in 2010 and also killed 2 others in the past 20 years.

Easily one of the best movies I saw in 2013.

8) :shock: :mrgreen: :cheese: out of :evil: :drunken: :P :?

I heard Journey pulled out of a concert @ Seaworld recently because of it -- there have been four or five bands of note that have done so after watching that film.

I really dig documentaries so wife and I gave this a whirl. She loves dolphins and shit and we thought that's what this was about. Kinda shocking. Sea world is evil.
Wife was tearing up through most of this flick. I'd recommend it.

:lol: It's impossible for me to hear Sea World without immediately blurting that out.

Checked this out yesterday and it was an interesting documentary. Went to Sea World as a little
kid and remember some of those old 80s commercials they showed. It's obvious to me we shouldn't
have the Orcas in captivity.

Very well done. Seaworld should have put some talking head on there to give their side though.
