The producers of the award-winning IMAX films Deep Sea 3D and Into the Deep 3D score another success with Under the Sea 3D. Featuring spectacular scenes of the undersea world of Papua New Guinea’s Coral Triangle, the Great Barrier Reef and the sea life native to the regions around Southern Australia, Under the Sea 3D offers an intimate look into the underwater world, and the exquisitely beautiful, treacherous and sometimes comical creatures that live there. 

 

There is no problematic content in Under the Sea 3D. Occasionally fish are seen eating other fish, a sea turtle is shown taking bites out of a jellyfish, and the like; but no blood, gore or body parts are shown. There are also multiple references to and scenes showing fish mating, but such scenes are not “sexual” in any sense that should worry parents. The narration makes one humorous reference to “cross-dressing fish,” about a species in which the males imitate the appearance of females in order to mate.

 

Because of its tremendous educational and artistic value and the opportunity it offers to view mysterious and rarely seen parts of the natural world, the Parents Television Council is proud to Under the Sea 3D with the PTC Seal of ApprovalTM. The PTC recommends this film for viewers over age five.
