We are in 2010, a wealthy country like Japan don't need to kill dolphins to survive. What Taiji is doing is not respecting mother nature. Do you think is good to take dolphins from the wild and put them in aquariums?Do you think it's good to kill them brutally?Do you think it is still about respecting culture or traditions?I think it's a matter of respecting LIFE!

RESPECT is what we miss in this world.

It's about saving an INCREDIBLY intelligent and self-aware species, and protecting the environment, and it's about governments not protecting their people by allowing contaminated meat into the market (a problem that exists in different forms in many if not all countries)

I don't like the way the movie expresses their agenda. I believe that embarrassing people in public, treating them like criminals,or imposing AMERICA's beliefs on them don't work effectively.

The shepherd even when he becomes a gentleman smells of the lamb.

I think what has motivated me is that I feel we could actually win this time. I work all the time on animal and environmental causes without seeing much change. It is discouraging at times. I also love that this work is an amends to Flipper and all the other captured marine animals over the years. I beg everyone to not lose their enthusiasm for this cause. Thank you to all of you who made this.

@AngelOfDeath420 I agree with you totally... It's a DOCUMENTARY not a fictive movie, and I feel like you in everything

I wrote about this film from the perspective of the Japanese on AllLookSame, addressing all the concerns and arguments that I came across on the web.

This film's self-righteous and moral stance will only cause both sides to become more infuriated at each other and will guarantee this conflict to last forever. It is very unfortunate.

great movie! great cause! I hope I could support a good cause too with my books, as every author should with his/her books?
