In regards to critics of the documentary, Salon.com wrote that "Ramsey’s critics say she’s turned conservation into a spectacle, using footage and photos captured during her dives to promote her personal brand while endorsing the protection of endangered species."[4] Outside Magazine wrote that the "documentary makes clear the soft-spoken Hawaiian marine conservationist doesn’t let her critics distract her from her mission: to use her voice and platform for shark conservation, not demonization."[5]
