In the 1960s, Richard O'Barry enjoyed a lucrative career as a specialized animal trainer; he captured the five dolphins that were used in the popular television series Flipper, and taught them the tricks and special commands they used on the show. Four decades later, O'Barry has renounced his former life as a trainer and become an animal rights activist, speaking out against the hunting of aquatic mammals and keeping them in captivity. O'Barry is not welcome in Taiji, a town along the Japanese coast where hunting dolphins is a major part of the local economy, but he and a group of activist filmmakers made their way into the city as well as the carefully guarded harbor in hopes of documenting the abuse of dolphins by fisherman and the poisoning of the waters that has taken a toll on the marine ecology. O'Barry and his colleagues captured some beautiful underwater footage as well as shocking images of how the town's fisherman have sullied the dolphins and their habitat, and director Louie Psihoyos has used this material as the basis for the documentary The Cove, which received its world premiere at the 2009 Sundance Film Festival. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Some New Trailer For The Cove
New Review For Movie The Cove
The Cove does what every great documentary with a cause should: It educates, entertains, and inspires audiences to take action.Christine Champ-Film.com
There's an effective thriller element to this vividly assembled doc.
Trevor Johnston-Time Out
The Cove is guerrilla journalism at its best. Structured and paced by director Louie Psihoyos as a thriller/caper movie, it brings audience-grabbing cinematic conventions to work in telling its story of dolphin genocide
Jonathan F. Richards-Film.com
In effect, by looking at nature The Cove shows us what it means to be human.
Ruth Hessey-MovieTime, ABC Radio National
As the subject of a documentary, this grim enterprise distinctly lacks the warm and fuzzy appeal of The March of the Penguins. So director Louie Psihoyos ingeniously reinvents his film as a spy caper.
Kerry Lengel-Arizona Republic
There are five minutes in this documentary that ought to be mandatory viewing. The entire 90 minutes is utterly compelling, but the five alone are worth the price of admission.
Michael Posner-Globe and Mail
Too much drama, not enough documentary.
Dan Jardine-Cinemania
One of the most suspenseful documentaries ever made, "The Cove" marries ecological espionage to a frightening domino effect of imperialism, political corruption and a socio-environmental disregard.
Nick Rogers-Suite101.com
A-team adventure needs a fifth column
Marty Mapes-Movie Habit
Then there's the redemptive human drama. O'Barry, acting like a modern-day Ahab after a spiritual awakening, the self-realized incriminations etched into his face, is the driving force of this film.
Kimberly Gadette-Indie Movies Online
I don't think I can go to marine parks anymore.
Gina Carbone-Seacoast Newspapers (NH/Maine)
No Hollywood film, fiction or non-, can ever prepare you for the reality of what goes on in that cove. Please don't show this film to young children. Devastating and excellent.
Karina Montgomery-Cinerina
Adding to the film's strength is its central figure, who is akin to a modern-day vigilante superhero... All O'Barry is missing is a mask and costume.
Jeffrey Chen-Window to the Movies
One of the year's best documentary films, a stirring call to action against the slaughter of dolphins in Japan.
Robert Roten-Laramie Movie Scope
Sounded like something I didn't want to see: a preachy nature documentary. But the actual film is much more daring and memorable.
Jeffrey M. Anderson-Combustible Celluloid
A confirmation of human dignity in the face of the unspeakable. Text "dolphin" to 44144. Now.
Rob Humanick-Projection Booth
Restrained and harrowing.
Edward Porter-Times [UK]
This outstanding documentary is as exciting as a thriller.
Philip French-Observer [UK]
This documentary is also as well made as anything released all year, blending hard facts, cold scientific reason plus the thrills of a Hollywood spy movie to terrific effect.
David Edwards-Daily Mirror [UK]
This film virtually creates a new genre: the horror doc. It's a gripping and compelling film about something utterly unthinkable.
Rich Cline-Shadows on the Wall
A taut, thrilling documentary that plays out like a heist movie while never overshadowing its message or activist credentials.
Philip Wilding-Empire Magazine
The Cove stands out from the crowd due to the readily apparent awfulness of the event it depicts.
Richard Luck-Film4
The great strength of this documentary about the covert killing of wild dolphins in Japan is its aesthetic: artful edits, zippy music, even a few jokes. Radical stuff for an eco-documentary.
Catherine Shoard-Guardian [UK]
A gripping, powerful and heart-wrenching expose ... activist filmmaking at its best.
Mike Scott-Times-Picayune
