MUST HAVE IF YOU HAVE BLU-RAY PLAYER September 21, 2008 This is the best thing I've seen on Blu-Ray. It's a MUST HAVE! By far the best documentary of nature I've seen, hands down!
one last look September 20, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
David Attenborough's narration is much better than Sigourney Weaver's, so make sure if you click the buy button for this much played on TV series that you get the rich, satisfying British voice. Can't top Sir David's style.
This gorgeous portrait of our planet Earth leaves all viewers in wonder and awe of our seemingly unique, one of a kind world. The vast topographies of continents and rich plurality of complex life forms are put on crisp display. It's a loving tribute and while your sitting in your home watching the images on your TV screen you might take a moment to appreciate that you were among the last humans to be alive to witness these phenomenon. Maybe it would be great to see them for yourself in the flesh. And it *might* occur to you to help save them, because the planet Earth on display here is not going to last. Stylish documentaries like this may very well serve as records for future generations of what once was -assuming humans survive the damage we've wrought.
Amazing Detail September 20, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I just entered the HD world this week and knew Planet Earth needed to be my first Blu-ray DVD. I read all the complaints that this edition does not have the 110 minutes of addition behind the scenes footage, but since I have never seen it I'm not missing it. All I can say is that the first disc has been stunning. Just an amazing picture (52" 1080p LCD TV doesn't hurt) and I have been finding it very educational for both myself and my daughter. The aerial footage of a giant herd of caribou or wild dogs conducting a well-organized hunt, or the detailed close-ups showing every little hair blowing in the breeze, is simply amazing. Of course I am coming straight from standard definition TV, so part of my awe is probably due to experiencing high definition in the first place. I would highly recommend this series just based on watching the first disc. I have three more to go, and expect more of the same.
Great! September 15, 2008 DVD's came in perfect condition within the normal shipping time. I'd definitely recommend this product and seller!
Excellent DVD series September 13, 2008 Excellent video series. This is my go-to gift for any member of the family. You will not regret it.
