It has saved countless dolphins so far, and has damaged and heavily delayed their current hunting season and will be responsible for ending it. The documentary is working perfectly. Corrupt "profitable work" is not work at all, and deserves full exposure.
It just got nominated!!! It got picked, along with 14 other docs., out of almost 100 docs as Oscar nominations. It's chance of winning is high.

The end.
Thank you! Arguing over terms people should already know to begin with is pointless. Especially since this site is for discussing movies aka films aka celluloid aka documentaries aka motion pictures aka you get the point. If Lee wants to get picky a "category" is a "genre" in film terms. But thus is just stupid...
This film worked (It's a start):

Not picky, just the facts. But make sure you get corrected on grammar and punctuation next time you write.
Or you could just change your attitude.

Documentaries ARE movies. I hope you're joking.
I know! But this person said "Fantastic movie" for which is not a movie per-say, its a Documentary. Different categories. There is Documentary Films and then there's Feature Films (or to get more technical, 'Feature Length'
NOT the same thing!!!

I wonder why not release it on Blu-ray, if March of the Penguins got a Blu release, I don't see why this one shouldn't

I got the chance to see this in my theater that was showing it for 1 week only for 1 showtime a day.
I heard this movie did start a bunch of controversy and I think is banned or very anti-popular in the Japanese reason because it shows proof that the film makers are right and change does start to happen.
I won't say more to spoil the film but it's very good and shocking.
Plus, they record their adventures and troubles and I felt really tense when they almost get caught a lot of times. I think, imo, it's cause it's all real.

There's only one side in this debate, and that's the right one, which you clearly aren't on.
I definitely want to see it. I hope it wins Best Documentary at the Oscars. It should at least get nominated.

This looks great, really wanna see this. Pity there will be no Blu, I'll get the R1 SD then.....
This looked very good. Cant believe I missed it. Comes out on my bday!
I dont know about this one. May rent it. Looks decent.
Really wanted to watch this. Never had time while it was playing here. Will buy it.
Fantastic movie, but definitely not for everyone. Very disturbing. This docu worked too, shut those crazy Japanese slaying dolphins.
