On the upside: the dolphins show off their acrobatic skills impressively, a few cool looking birds are thrown in, and even a few nice tricks from the humans. (Jumping into the water from great heights always = good.) Downside: they've jettisoned any attempt at learning about the animals in favor of a lame attempt at Disney-esque "magic", a storyline + costumes that are a (very) poor man's knockoff of Cirque du Soleil, and you get only brief looks at some pretty cool animals (like a huge, black + white condor). OK, but rather weird.
