 Nice Present for a Traveler November 3, 2006
2 out of 3 found this review helpful
I gave this DVD as a birthday present to a friend who was planning a trip to Australia within a couple of months. I have not seen the documentary and can only comment on my friend's reaction to watching it frequently before her trip. She was pleased with the information, scenery, and especially the animals on the film. She has a hectic schedule and little time for TV and films. However, she commented several times how much she was enjoying this DVD. She's in Australia now, so I'll have to wait until she returns to find out if it helped her during the trip.

AUSTRALIA THE BEAUTIFUL
DISCOVERING AUSTRALIA
AUSTRALIA - THE LAND BEYOND TIME
These movies are all informative, and Australia itself is of course gorgeous. Some people seem to think the only things in Australia are kangaroos, koalas, Aborigines, Crocodile Dundee, and Steve Irwin feeding his baby to the crocodiles. Students in China will ask you "What is the weather like in Australia?" as if a country roughly the size of China or the USA has the same weather from east to west and north to south. These films will show you otherwise, but it is annoying that I can't find a single DVD about Australia made by Australians. These are distinctly American, even though the third has a British narrator.

Very good film about Australia. I would have liked more scenes and info about marsupials and other exotic Australian animals, but any how, this is a great documentary. Totally recommended.

Land yes, people no.......????
this video shows the beautiful and interesting land and land creatures of the continent but fails to show that it is inhabited at all. I expected some views of the aboriginals and their history, some mention at least. But by watching this video you have no idea that humans exist on the continent AT ALL!
I loved the segments of the formation of the continent, the kangaroos, the birds... but after 30 minutes of this I expected to see the Great Barrier reef, the inhabited areas and some other aspects of Australia. I was left very unfulfilled. Too bad.

Incredible scenery from down under! I particularly enjoyed the underwater life and underground insect scenes. Transitions are so smooth and the music ...so relaxing.
