GamerTab That was an excellent one.

Wordiezett So much average

Vashirdfel Simply A Masterpiece

KnotStronger This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

Sameer 'Planet Earth' is one of the most awesome nature documentaries. They show stunning videos of Arctic, Mountains, Caves, Deserts, Plains, Jungles, Forests, Seas, Ocean deep etc etc. This superb documentary has the superb narrator David Attenborough !!

IkhwanArif A beautiful snapshot of our earth taken with patient and meticulous cinematography, Planet Earth is a great general wildlife documentary. Covering several themes including the ocean, desert, jungle, forests, caves, and Poles, Planet Earth's singular mission is to present young audiences to the diverse habitats and how each life form intertwines with each other. In this respect, it succeeds immensely. David Attenborough does his usual marvelous exposition. One flaw of this series is that, for veteran wildlife buffs like me, it lacks in- depth exploration of the subject matters but since it is suppose to cover our planet, it couldn't be helped. Regardless, it is a worthy viewing for anyone concern or curious about the world we live in. My personal favourites are the Caves and the Poles episodes.

clibat2 This is a great series. First, the bad part... the narration can get a bit annoying. An American version would be great so measurements were in Fahrenheit, inches and miles rather than metric. Other annoyances such as the constant and incorrect use of the word "literally" which after a while is comical could also be corrected. Finally, a narrator that doesn't sound like he is talking with food in his mouth would be a big improvement. That's the bad part, but the good outweighs the bad which is why I rated this a 6. Great care and expense was obviously taken with the filming which includes everything from closeups to aerial imagery. This is the type of video that makes your HDTV really pay off.

Lin2050 Yes, there are beautiful wide-angle views of our PLANET EARTH. But they form ONLY about 15% of this documentary. The majority, about 80% of this movie, is about animals eating one another.Photographing animals is relatively easy and cheap, while photographing truly beautiful, wide-angle views of our Earth is very expensive and time-consuming. And obvious they knew it, which is why this movie is given the misleading title of "PLANET EARTH", instead of the correct title "ANIMALS ON PLANET EARTH". I don't want to call this cheating….As I said, yes, there are some great photos showing the beauty of the Earth. But even these are beginning to show signs of age. The blu-ray version of this movie is in VC-1, an old, not that HD format, now abandoned by everyone.One thing I dislike most is seeing a narrator jumping into your view and start talking nonsense, while I was in the middle of enjoying the beauty of a scene. This guy seemed to do this in many of the BBC nature documentaries. Luckily, he refrained from do it in this movie. Maybe they have spent too much money on this documentary and don't want it ruined… BTW, if you are interested in the beauty of the Earth, rather than in animals eating one another, Frozen Planet might be a better choice, although it unfortunately covers only the poles.
