If there is a human sour enough not to enjoy the sloth swimming leisurely to meet his mate, then he or she deserves to be pickled alive. Go to Full Review

3/5
This gorgeous nature documentary megamix, with sequences liberally culled from last year's BBC Planet Earth II series, rightfully earns its place on the big screen. Go to Full Review

3/5
Projected onto a big screen in all of its digital glory, this footage is spectacular. And yet the movie as a whole feels like a missed opportunity to explore how humans also fit in with this cycle of day and night. Go to Full Review

brendan n 09/27/2018 Amazing film and one of the better documentaries coming out with a sense of fun and wonder. Robert Redford might not have been the correct choice for the narrator but even he can't shadow this wonderful film. The film is family friendly and for those looking for depth, like the Attenborough documentaries will be letdown. The film is beautiful to look at and is a visual splendour from beginning to end. 27/09/2018.

Beautiful. See more 04/05/2018 There are a few absolutely amazing scenes in this film. Some of them are very funny too. You will know what i mean when you get to these parts. If you like nature documentaries, this is not a waste of time. See more 11/12/2017 Honestly lost interest after 20 minutes. Would have been okay if the footage transitions felt smoother and if the overall footage was more interesting. See more 10/09/2017 I enjoyed it. Very impressed with the footage they were able to capture as well as how they wove it together. See more Read all reviews
