04/23/2024 One of Disney Nature's best after all this time 15 years old this is a perfect example of how to do a nature documentary for kids and their parents It's actually adapted from the same BBC series but shot with a ton more footage James Earl Jones narrates this entry centering on 3 families of animals; polar bears, elephants, and whales There's even a part documenting some exotic birds almost like visiting an alien planet Some of the stuff feels restrained as far as showing the cycle of life; doesn't really show the money shots so to speak like carnivores eating their prey Plus the three main stories feel like they go off tangent at times not really connected to each other But it is so beautiful to watch and the animals are fascinating to watch their habitats as they make their way for survival See more 07/25/2021 https://youtu.be/EHC9HE7vazI See more 01/17/2017 WHAT'S EARTH ABOUT? 90-minute version of the incredible BBC documentary miniseries Planet Earth. IS IT ANY GOOD? (GRADE: A-) What the film version lacks in the miniseries' thoroughness, it makes up for in a breathless pace that relentlessly transports you all over the world (as any great adventure film should). The footage is, quite simply, some of the most stunning ever captured on film, in any genre. What's more, Earth works as a riveting drama, following three families (polar bears, humpback whales, and African elephants) as they try to survive predators, climate change, and the search for food, over the course of one year. I found myself invested in the survival of these animals as much or more than any fictional character, due at least in part to clever editing and skillful narration by James Earl Jones. The wonder of nature makes for a terrific blockbuster. IS IT OKAY FOR YOUR KIDS? Earth is rated G. There are some moments of animals in peril and some scenes of animals being attacked by predators, though thankfully there is no gory or bloody footage. ANY WORTHWHILE MESSAGES? With perseverance, grit, and teamwork you can survive almost anything. See more 06/26/2015 Best earth movie documentary by far!!!! The art and cinematographic picture is off the hook!
