Movie Reviews of Blue Planet/The Dream is Alive/Destiny in SpaceMovie Review: Great DVD Summary: 5 StarsGREAT! IMAX movies are wonderful. I have several of them and love them all.
Movie Review: The dream rekindled Summary: 5 StarsAfter viewing the VHS version of these films for years we were delighted to view the DVDs in their unfaded glory. Wow!
Movie Review: Very Good Documentaries! Summary: 4 StarsMy husband and I loved watching these documentaries. However, my son, 5, faded in and out with its more mature teaching style. Great for older space enthusiasts. For my son, I wound up finding a musical adventure, "My Fantastic Field Trip To The Planets," where the planets have faces (very effective for holding young kids' interests). Overall, I recommend this Imax Best of Space Collection, but for the little ones don't expect too much interest.
Movie Review: To Boldly Go. Summary: 4 StarsDESTINY IN SPACE was an IMAX film released at the height of the NASA's space shuttle program. The film is narrated by Leonard Nimoy and includes both archived and never before publicly released footage. The film provides a glimpse of how it is like to live on the space shuttle and the work that American astronauts do in the current age of space exploration. The film was specifically shot for the IMAX formula so much of the movies grandeur is lost when watching the film on a normal television. I had an opportunity to watch the film on a screen similar those at a drive-in theatre and was in awe of some of the space shots. DESTINY IN SPACE has lost some impact over the years because the space shuttle program isn't new anymore, shuttle program is over twenty-five years old now and in another decade a new and different age of space exploration will begin. Nevertheless, I enjoyed watching the movie and was reminded of some things we discussed in my elementary and middle school science classes. Also, the main theme of the film is that humankind has been destined to explore space so when the next age of exploration of the cosmos begins, DESTINY IN SPACE will remain as a tribute of how things were and a reminder that we should keep pressing forward.
Movie Review: IMAX on DVD... Summary: 5 StarsMy dad just checked this DVD out from the library for the whole family to watch. It was great - the picture, the sound (although it seemed to be too loud for a normal TV set), everything! We learned everything from hoping to discover Mars in the future, to how the Hubble space telescope is repaired...
Best of all, no objectionable content - just pure educational fun! If you have kids that like space so much then watch this DVD.
