    I love that little puff

    It's a stylised documentary, portraying an important message. It's better than any animation for learning like that. Incredible visuals, colour corrected to our sight. I can't see anything wrong with that. The reef has just respawned too, which is very great news! We have to help these funny little guys x.

    Beautifully filmed

    Amazing colorful images from the Great Barrier Reef. Beautiful insight in the life of the reef from the eyes of a puffer fish. Hopefully those that see this understand the damage we can inflict on the planet and how serious the global warming is.

    Great Food Chain Documentary

    This documentary shows the Great Barrier Reef on a microscopic scale. Told through the vein of a baby puffer fish, Puff, we are introuduced to myriad other creatures which Puff shares his marine ecosystem with.

    Gem of a "must see" docu-story for all; engaging truthful beauty

    This new fascinating film is SO underrated, found in Netflix's "kids" section. Photo pic looks like it's for kids but it's a true Wondor world of essential incredible microscopic life on Great Barrier Reef, and relevant to all reefs. The breathtaking colors, details, & film quality are exceptionally lovely, exceeding BBC earth at times using latest tech.

    Narration is told mainly from a colorful tiny puffer fish's point of view & how he must survive in a thriving reef. One is quickly engaged & developes empathy for this adorable tiny newly hatched fish, & ALL magnificent micro organisms that create & surround his ocean world.

    Majority of Film presents stages of struggle & humor for puffer fish and many weird & wonderful tiny micro lives surviving the reef world in stunning fascinating manner. Then it becomes heartbreaking as viewers see results of a warming ocean from climate change, the destruction of corals & billions of lives within.

    This film is proof NOT to take our seas for granted as humanity continues to act despite decades of widespread hard science. Narration delicately teaches, not preaches, & allows viewer to decide the issue of adverse climate change affects by showing time lapse destruction of a once vibrant reef beyond imagination, then its death - the ocean's foundation, building blocks for all life including humanity. It motivates one to care , protect & think about hidden biodiverse ecosystems that benefit all humans.

    For those critics desiring original eye opening docu film with true under cover scenes & causel science, displaying insatiable human greed fueling global mass commercial slaughter of all sea life since 1920s, unenforced laws, real culprits of plastic ocean poisoning, its sea life incl ppl who eat them- watch Netflix's "Seaspiracy". That docu also shows how consumers daily choices can stop secret greed based "unseen" plunder that threatens humanity's health & future.

    A beautiful film

    Such captivating beauty that was expertly filmed alongside an interesting story following the life of one the most adorable creatures on earth. A great watch for the whole family that teaches the basics about the coral reef food chain along with all of its inhabitants, from microscopic to super sized. It also has a brief moment informing us about how the warning oceans are causing more and more of the coral reefs, asking with its inhabitants, to die. It's sad that another reviewer was upset about this being included. I guess they don't understand the severity of what's truly going on here and that not including this information in a film about life in the coral reef would be pretty ridiculous to say the least. They followed this puffer fish throughout its life... it's home is destroyed and you think they're not going to include it because it hurts your feelings? Get real. Puff is adorable and I highly recommend this film for any science or animal lovers out there.
