'The Cove' Available on Blu Ray and DVD **1/2stars




the academy award winner for best documentary is good not great. some horrific scenes of whale and dolphin slaughters are eye opening to say the least. the japanese who claim no knowledge of the slaughter some how remind me of a generation of germans who claim no knowledge of the holocaust. you can make your own decision on this matter.

it is also your choice to rent or not. the narrative and interviews border on the tedious. the 'heroes' appear to be patting themselves on the back way to much. they appear to enjoy the spotlight more than the cause.
