Redwarmin This movie is the proof that the world is becoming a sick and dumb place

Beystiman It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

Cooktopi The acting in this movie is really good.

Guillelmina The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

syman biswas i was excited about this documentary because of Nat Geo but saying just being disappointing is a sure understatement. Firstly, the author, within 10 minutes of the first episodes its clear that he's far far away from understanding what is coming out of his mouth Now about the content, oh and what to say about that, lets for one moment agree with the editor to focus on the main points. Fire, currency, war, shelter, medicine are all revolutionary points but it looks like its not about the whole earth but only Europe and some portion of north America. apart from China( that too minor mention) Asian countries were almost non existent, South America and Africa were not even mentioned, are you kidding, Mesopotamia, Indus valley and what not are not even mentioned once. its a show talking about Origins of humans from hunter gatherers to a civilized societies without even mentioning the first civilizations that ever existed. and about the time-lines what to say about them, don't know what the actual mistake of the creator was, not knowing an iota of the actual stuff and history or just whitewashing over them completely and presenting his own narrative.recommend this show as a fantasy for children but guess what the violence will not suit them, pathetic attempt in name of a documentary..p.s. Some visuals are nice..

dieherreradiaz I was hoping for a good documentary that made different points of view and made key observations of how specific inventions of moments affected the overall human history, here we have a bit of that, the drama acts in between i welcomed at first. These acts helped to connect with these moments and give more context than just plain numbers or facts but later on the acts became way too long and took to much time from the actual documentary part of the show.Then my largest disappointment is the constant focus on USA. On the episode about architecture and transportation they dedicated at least 8 min of the show about women rights or racism in the US. I came to the show to watch a documentary about humankind i don't wanna see a story about issues in the US, its fine to mention them sure but 8-10 min just about how blacks got banned from the firsts urban areas ? no thanks,specially since after that segment they barely gave 3 min to show Arcuitecture in possible houses of space, arguably a much better topic for a episode for freaking architecture, not American civil rights history.

yooniverse Hyper, electronic/industrial melodramatic soundtrack, lots of flashy CGI with rotating/panning camera work, cinematically contrived, fast-paced cut scenes. It's a documentary with ADD.The host/narrator, Jason Silva, is absolutely the worst I have ever seen/heard. Is he high on coke? it's jarring--I can't stand his overly emphatic speech mannerisms. The tone has a quality of being very condescending/patronizing, as if he needs to make you understand just how important everything he says is. He needs to see how to convey the sense of wonder in presenting knowledge--maybe watch Carl Sagan, James Burke, David Attenborough, Neil deGrasse Tyson, and many other successful narrators. It's also hard to "connect" with the narrator when the stupid camera constantly breaks eye contact with the narrator with off-angle camera work.Material itself is fine, in my opinion. Yes, it over-dramatizes too many minor points with lots of hyperbole, but I get that it's an interpretive work. It has educational value. Just hit the mute button when Silva appears and lower the volume a bit for the rest of the show. I tried watching that way and found that I missed nothing, confirming that he adds nothing to the presentation of the material. My blood pressure and stress levels came down, and was able to enjoy the show.

fukuall-22068 The show may have shown promise but that presenter is the worst I've ever seen...he's obviously off his meds...wildly gesticulating, even doing some old disco dance steps at one point...and such an annoying spoken presence that so distracted from the content that I gave up after only 20 minutes.
