Animalopolis

11 a.m. & 1 p.m. daily

(July 17-30 / Noon & 2 p.m. daily)

Singing lions, bears that waltz, sea lions turning somersaults. Otters pray, flamingos squawk, a calf who’d rather dance than walk. They’re all “stars” of this uniquely entertaining IMAX film developed for young children. With 12 hilarious segments, each featuring a different animal and narrated in almost Seuss-like rhymes, “Animalopolis” will appeal to young children as well as the young at heart.

Deep Sea

Noon & 2 p.m. daily

(July 17-30 / 11 a.m., 1 & 3 p.m. daily)

Swim with some of the planet’s most unique, dangerous and colorful creatures, from the unusual wolf eel to the giant Pacific octopus, in this fascinating undersea exploration narrated by actors Johnny Depp and Kate Winslet.

“Deep Sea” brings audiences face-to-face with these underwater inhabitants to witness their peculiar and amazing behaviors. Thrill to 6-foot long Humboldt squid, frogfish, basket stars, manta rays, jellyfish, ocean sunfish, a variety of prowling sharks and more.

The New York Post called “Deep Sea” “one of the more solidly entertaining deep-sea documentaries filmed in IMAX.” And The Detroit Free Press said, “If the typical IMAX offering has a handful of unforgettable shots, this one delivers about 50.”

“Deep Sea” was directed by world-renowned underwater cinematographer Howard Hall and features an original score by four-time Oscar nominee Danny Elfman.
