After 5 years of reading RT, thid piece of crap is so bad that I actually made an account to let you know how bad it is. Yes its that bad. Obviously paid "critics reviews". I started watching it with low expectations: basically I was looking for the ISS shots of our planet high res footage. The commentary from Jennifer is so clueless, fake and overacted its disgusting. Then she starts spewing polical crap in a feature most of us expected to be a scientifical documentary. If she got so desperate to sign on something like this, I'm no longer advising anyone to watch any of her work.

Got almost 20 minutes in before it turned into a propaganda film. Some nice pictures from space, though.

I had to rewind just to see that beautiful rendition of the Milky Way Galaxy. That was so pretty. The scope of this is incredible. This was meant to be watched in a movie theater. Really makes you appreciate our beautiful and magnificent planet. I'd like to re watch this again.

6/10 This is a short documentary on planet earth and human effect from space station . I liked it, it did what it had to , spread the usual save our planet message, some parts kinda boring because of the pacing, like when they talkabout city lights but the whole film makes it up by providing eye candy, plus it's because I saw it at the planetarium in Denmark

The result is the best kind of spectacle: that which encourages us to look up and beyond ourselves - and does so using only organic special effects.

Rated: 4/5

The overall package is a bit scattered editorially, but it does serve a greater purpose: to share excitement about the Earth, and further stoke any interests in not destroying it.

Rated: 3.5/4

The biggest kick of all is watching the blue Earth through the Cupola, the observation deck offering the best views in the universe.

This is a short but overwhelming experience: a doc exploring not just Earth's magnificence, but how we take it for granted.

Another eye-popping Imax doco set largely in orbit and looking down at our humble planet.

...with such an interesting subject matter and hundreds of outlets to explore, A Beautiful Planet feels criminally short.
