Ocean Giants is a 2011 British nature documentary series narrated by actor Stephen Fry.
The series was released on DVD and Blu-ray on 6 March 2012 by BBC Home Entertainment, but only for the United States.
Benji Wilson of The Daily Telegraph criticized the first episode for being "underwhelming," writing that although the series showcased plenty of footage of the whales, "it’s hard for television to communicate their awesome bigness.
"[5] Amol Rajan of The Independent voiced a similar concern, pointing out that "there was a failure to convey the sheer size of these beasts because the only thing we had to compare them with was each other."
"[6] Phil Hogan of The Guardian disliked the slow pacing of the series, writing that "it seemed to take hours to get [the whales] in and out of shot."
