Lightly Toasted

We watched Sea Monsters in 3D a couple of nights back. The story is less than impressive even though the opening banner reads: Its Finding Nemo with a wow factor of about 100! Hmmmmm NOT!! The one thing I did like is the graphic manipulation and 3D rendition of the imaginary mammals. Funny though, one of the female archeologist that show up every now and then between the story line of the movie has the most fake smile you could ever imagine and her hands so perfectly manicured and nails so flawlessly buffed its impossible to think she is an archieologist for a start! Let alone the make up, and the dainty walk along the excavations in the archaeological site. Now, can I just say one more thing, just because you can doesn’t mean you do it!!! Its like putting lipstick on a Warthog!! (Thanks Mary-Anne I love that catch phrase). Just because its a 3D movie and they have the added dimension of making objects jump out of the screen, does it necessarily mean the gigantic monsters in the movie need to go through the middle of your forehead everytime you see one You wonder why people get headaches watching 3D movies? Well, I certainly do!

I was expecting a bit more ‘reality’ from this Sea Monsters in 3D knowing it was from the National Geographic archives! Then again if this was targeted at kids its still flawless in many way and has some groovy animation. Go give yourself a little headache too and join in the fanfare
