Eyewitness Ocean (1997)

Dorling Kindersley's Eyewitness books are top-of-the-line compilations of interesting and well-written facts woven together with impressive photos and illustrations -- and so are its DVDs. Except Ocean. Medium-grade stock photography fills the first 6 minutes and most of the remaining 29 minutes. The CGI is substandard and the script has the aggravating habit of addressing a different topic in every sentence -- and failing to use plain English to boot. 3 stars.
