'Deep Rising,' narrated by Jason Momoa, is a compelling documentary that explores the hypocrisies of the switch from oil to electric. Our Sundance2023 review:
You might not peg Jason Momoa as the person to narrate a nature documentary, but one of the surprises of Deep Rising was just how perfect Momoa was for the part. Director Matthieu Rytz wisely has Momoa narrating some of the most self-reflective dialogue of the documentary on the mining of the deep seafloor for metals. If anyone was going to criticize the humans of earth, it should be the King of Atlantis.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY But, of course, Deep Rising is quick to show us the truth of how much value there is in the deep seabed and how much life is down there. And as the documentary progresses, it's not just a deep sea problem, it's, unsurprisingly, a human problem. In the shift to "green" energy and away from oil and coal, humanity is now demanding the creation of batteries, specifically for electric cars.
The condemnation of Deep Rising is not on people who want to genuinely help the world heal, but on the businessmen and companies that spot an opportunity for further wealth. It's not about saving the planet for these conglomerates, it's about making more money. They're willing to destroy ecosystems that have been functioning for millions of years and trample over life forms that have been alive since the time of the dinosaurs.
