Movie Reviews of Genesis: Where Are We Coming From?
Movie Review: good photography, but hokey narration
Summary: 3 Stars
I loved the photography in this DVD, the pictures of the critters were awesome. I didn't care so much for the endless shots of waves and mud. I also found the narration irritating and probably would have enjoyed it muted more. I'm not sure if it was the voice itself or the content. The sound effects were not good either. Though the giant Galapagos Turtles are huge, I'm quite sure they don't sound like a tyrannosaurus rex pounding through the grass, and I know that teeny crabs don't sound like a herd of locusts chewing their way through the savannah. I would have been much happier with the natural sounds of the forests or jungles to back up the beautiful pics.
My recommendation would be to give this film a miss and instead go with one by the same director that is infinitely better - Microcosmos. THAT one I highly recommend.
