I'm surprised not many people have seen this documentary.

Especially Asians!! -- the people that need to see it most.

Friend recommended it to me. I rented it at blockbuster and was surprised how good it was.

Ya, I watched it when it was playing at TT maybe a year ago? A good watch, detered my friend from eating sharks fin but I still eat it out of respect of the host of the dinner.

i was forced to watch it as part of my English class. it's a good documentary.

I liked this doc so much that I ordered a copy off Chapters.ca right after watching :D Go watch this!

Good documentary, minus the surferboy voice narration throughout lol

It's pretty sad that they kill these things just for the fins, and just dump the rest of it back in the water, sometimes when they are still alive...and for what, soup!

my g/f owns the movie and just got the book. Some sad stuff thats for sure

your not missing out on much. people just like it because of it's expensive "baller" status.

yea, its messed up, asian culture (like my parents and all their friends), eat it at weddings.


It's kinda hard explaining to my parents that the soup has no nutritional value and that it's actually high in mercury. but at least the are cool with me not serving it at my wedding whenever i get married. You just replace the baller status with more lobster, or another super expensive substitute i guess?
