The message of the document is important and necessary - and so kudos to the film-makers; but how that message is told is somewhat flawed. Too much focus on individuals, who, while are interesting, detract from the point of the film. Also important pieces of information are presented without putting them into context for easier, visual understanding. And finally the documentary is a bit meandering and could have used better editing.

I found this Documentary very Sickning and Distressing and that we continue to allow our wildlife to suffer as they do. You'll find some commenters Dismissing this documentary as garbage, Unscientific and Unrealistic,... How Neive and Unworldly this world really is is just has Shoocking to me and no wounder our Oceans are as they are. When was the last time you visited the Ocean? I know everytime I've visited the Ocean, there is Plastic everywhere and its commonsense to conclude that our wildlife will and Do mistakenly eat some of this plastic believing it to be food,... Some of these animals are then caught and processed into the Human food chain. We Need to Change no Matter you view on this Documentary!

Documentaries help us change perspectives. Or, at least, they should. This one, for instance, achieved its goal and its audience (hopefully). It is approachable, making people realize the impact of their unconscious decisions and, therefore, they become more aware of their actions and start to shift plans. It's hard to believe, but true, that through visual example humans are more willing to change behaviour than from receiving the same information through speech or from having it written down. We don't predict the future, we shape it by determination and desire to strive for a better day.

In 2011, journalist Craig Leeson is doing a nature documentary on the blue whale, a giant of the sea. He is hundreds of miles in the middle of nowhere. He's doing underwater filming and he gets surprised by a floating cloud of plastic garbage. It starts a journey to uncover the damage done by the increasing amount of plastic trash washing out to sea and into the food chain. It's an eye-opening and distressing tale ever since the floating islands of garbage made it into international news. There is a closing section about solutions. That's probably the only problematic section. It gets preachy with the fast food joints although it's hard to get things done without being preachy. It also highlights recycling but its difficulties are papered over. There is a general Pollyanna tone to some of the mechanical solutions. According to the doc, it is a gold mine ready to be picked through and that's really stretching the truth. I don't mind some blemish with the planet's salvation. Also it gives false hope which could diminish the urgency to reduce plastic use. Overall, it is a compelling piece of advocacy doc.

How many pounds of trash do you think is being thrown into the ocean? How much of it do you think is plastic? millions upon millions of pounds of plastic are being thrown into the ocean accidentally and purposefully. The plastic ocean is a documentary about how we are throwing plastic into the ocean and what we can do to prevent plastic from being eaten by sea life and humanity when we fish and how it affects both sea life and humans. Mainly, when you think of how much fish there is in the ocean you have also think of how many types of fish are already contaminated, which fish you can and can't eat, and of the certain species of fish is endangered and on the brink of extinction. Well, what if the was and the ships that were carrying 60 shipping containers full of small plastic beads were to be overturned by a typhoon? All or most of the containers would have fallen off the ships. Those containers would sooner or later release all of the bags of small beads into the ocean due to the fact that containers would be crashing into each other and breaking open, this would have an impact on the sea life around the area in the container broke open. Sooner or later the food chain would have plastic beads. these plastic beads would end up in fish and be sold to people that have no idea the fish have plastic beads in them. This affects the fish due to the fact that they would die to not being able to digest anything with a stomach full of the plastic bead and they would die by starvation. A beach is a beautiful place where you can enjoy the sand and the oceans at the same time. but, when there is plastic being thrown on the oceans shore and there are plastics being buried in the sand. The beach isn't the same, it is littered with trash and plastics alike.but that isn't the only problem when plastics are burned they release chemicals that were used to create the plastic in the first place and these chemicals can cause cancer or affect your body in many other ways. There are many places in the world that don't have a solution to dealing with or recycling plastics. The ocean's food chain is very large and important. This food chain is also so very vulnerable because of the fact that if one small squid eats a piece of plastic that squid will be eaten by a fish and the small piece of plastic might be joined by another type of plastics as it goes up the food chain. until it reaches us, humans. And when we realize that their plastic in the very fish we cut open we will have to take action and prevent plastic from entering the ocean's food chain.

We through we knew the solution to the single-use plastic items?Wrong. We thought we have a lot more time and spaces to deal with plastic products?Wrong. We though maybe it is only a few turtles, seabirds that are affected so far by the plastic?Wrong. This is a film that change your perspectives of where, when and how we human being have left to deal with the worst invention of 20th century-plastic. Heart-breaking facts, life-devoting scientists, passionate environmental fighters, There is still HOPE. Watch this ENTIRE film, don't just skip the title, and say, I already knew.... Craig Leeson has done an amazing job and I wish this film can be added to all classroom in U.S , China, Philippine, U.K, .....

I'm getting tired of documentaries that don't even try to be neutral on the subject they cover. This is more propaganda than science and it bothers me that such an important matter as this one is given this kind of treatment. Instead of giving us a serious look on how this came to be and scientific ways to try and solve the problem, it just throws at us shocking imagery and shouts "OMG look how bad this is!!". Very disappointed.

I mainly enjoyed the documentary, could be a bit more well produced though. It should be, in my opinion, more about the plastic in the ocean per se, the consequences, direct and indirect, the study cases (and there are thousands of those), as it was in the first part, and less about the human self-destruction with garbage (2nd part). All in all this documentary is a 50% of good scientific proof of the damage plastic is to our environment/our possible future, and 50% of opinion journalism. I don't dislike the opinions, but most are uninformed and there are some scientific errors here and there. Still I give it a positive review, as it can achieve its goal into showing people what our mindless action can do to the environment and, in the midle/long term, to us! I would recommend it, but be aware of some sensasionalistic opinions.
