Movie Reviews of The BBC Natural History Collection featuring Planet Earth (Planet Earth/ The Blue Planet: Seas of Life Special Edition/ Life of Mammals/ Life of Birds)
Movie Review: Breathtaking series, excellent value
Summary: 5 Stars
Epic, landmark, stunning: there aren't enough superlatives for these wildlife series. They are, very simply, the ultimate. If you, your family, or your children are interested in the natural world -- and we all should be so interested -- then these 17 discs are a dream come true: over 33 hours of the most awe-inspiring yet intimate views of the animals that occupy our earth, seas, and skies, together with amazing facts about their lives, habitats, and diversity.
The four series were photographed by hundreds of cameramen who spanned the globe for more than a decade to uncover the stories of every type of life, from the very small to the enormous, and narrated by David Attenborough, one of the world's foremost naturalists and filmmakers. This bargain-priced compact set is the way to go, for after seeing one of these incredibly beautiful series, you will want them all.
Most famous, and justly so, is the series Planet Earth. Each episode focuses on the biota of a particular biome: mountains, fresh water habitats, caves, deserts, plains, icy regions, jungles, seas, forests, and oceans. The geology and seasonal changes of each zone are explored and documented with magnificent clarity, and exciting supplements take you into the making of the series, the cutting-edge technologies involved, and the astounding patience and death-defying efforts of the camera crews.
Planet Earth is the most recent series, the pinnacle of BBC nature programs, and the most wide-ranging and fascinating. Yet the previous series included in this set -- The Life of Birds, The Life of Mammals, and The Blue Planet: Seas of Life -- concentrate with far more detail on the creatures that occupy specific habitats. They are almost as good as Planet Earth, which is to say utterly spectacular, head-and-shoulders above every other nature series ever filmed.
