#107 - T Rex of the Deep [documentary] (2009)

"Unfortunately feels more like a tv episode than the documentary it is advertised as, with constant recaps and unnecessary cgi interactions with actual people. However, past that is just enough scientific information to put a small amount of meat on the skeleton of this piece. 

The life cycle, size, and contemporaries in the ocean make for interesting viewing, and learning more about the Mosasaur sparks that child-like  beautiful wonder for the mindbogglingly ancient history of creatures of the deep. 

It concludes with a life sized replica head, complete with teeth,  created to test the ferocity of the creature's bite - an imaginative if speculative conclusion to the show"
