delysid d @RT67044741 05/17/2020 one of the better documentaries ive seen See more 04/05/2020 Enter the world of insects. This is a nature documentary with some pretty extreme close-ups. Supported by great music work and only a few sentences from the narrator we are mostly on or own - we observe, digest and kind of create your own stories for the scenes. Plenty of cool animals here, some very fascinating. Some very interesting and cool scenes - nature surely knows have to keep your eyes open with it's weird creatures. This is nearly 25 years old now, and technically it should be way off the level of newer productiones as we today are blessed with all those amazing BBC-productions in recent years. Imporessively enough it doesn't lack much - it's still a very imoressive piece of work. I'm glad it's not a very long film. It's kind of tiresome to watch insects over, and over again - but with only 75 minutes of playtime it's a fairly easy watch with all it's colors and the typical animalistic fights for survival. Nice little film, but not as mindblowing as it probably was twenty years ago. 7 out of 10 dung beetles.

See more 07/13/2015 I'd seen this years ago and it still holds up as fascinating. The film is essentially a series of super close-up shorts of various bugs and other small creatures in their natural habitat, doing everything form eating, sleeping, reproducing, fighting or just walking around. The vibrant photography and elegant editing are what make this film so hypnotic and compelling to watch. I was kind of disappointed that it didn't hold my kids interest (I think it also kind of grossed them out), but I at least couldn't take my eyes off the film. See more 01/01/2015 Brillant throughout. The narrative and cinematography are superb. A must see that you'll watch again and again. See more 12/19/2014 Mesmerizing. Beautiful, entertaining, funny, and a little itchy at times. I love how operatic arias accompany the mating scenes--hilarious. See more Read all reviews
