Review of Planet Earth DVD by Sophie-Kaia

Advantages: excellent footage/bonus material/educational
Disadvantages: can't think of any

...comprises of all of the Planet Earth episodes shown on BBC1 as well as a bonus -Planet Earth - the future. This bonus dvd accompanies the book of the same name and looks at saving species and asks the question do we face an extinction crisis. We also learn about how we can save certain species. xx--Bonus content--xx This bonus disk also looks at pollutiion, climate change and the growing human population -- all of which are putting pressure on ...
...living together-the challenges facing the planet and living together in such remote areas in the 21st century. This bonus disk asks and attempts to answer a lot of question about our planet in crisis and is a very interesting and inspiring watch. I really enjoyed learning about ways in which I could help, and after watching the stunning footage filmed of our planet, you can not help but ask the question "how can I help" -this disk really tries to ...

Epitome of Natural History
Review of Planet Earth DVD by articlewiki

Advantages: Beauty, nature, David Attenborough
Disadvantages: None

...like David Attenborough, and the Planet Earth series raises the standard another notch over the competition and if like me you love natural history you'll find nothing better...................Planet Eart is streets ahead of anyone else. The dvd collection is comprised of 11 episodes, each looking at different environments, and then three more traditional documentaries about the threats to these environments. As ever, it's the camera work (and David ...
...marvel at how beautiful our planet and the creatures on it really are. The series also includes a number of truly fantastic moments such as a snow leopard chasing a goat down a sheer rock face, a pride of lions hunting elephants and a polar bear fighting a walrus. You will not find a more beautifully shot, painstakingly researched, lovingly made and worthy piece of wildlife television than Planet Earth. My own favourite part was definately the piece ...

Must Have DVD Set!
Review of Planet Earth DVD by g70177

Advantages: Great scenes that you can't imagine exists
Disadvantages: Could be a little longer

This is the best dvd set I've ever bought and I got the blu ray edition. Each dvd is on a topic about some landscape/water part of the earth and they use the best examples to show (ex: biggest cave, largest reef, etc.) You feel like each topic can actually be a 2 hour movie by itself, but they do a great job of picking the best images into each dvd. The only exception is the first dvd, which is a preview of all the other topics. It gathers the best ... Read review

An epic and brilliant series to treasure forever.
Review of Planet Earth DVD by dan1990

Advantages: A wonderful insight into our great planet
Disadvantages: Just too brilliant

This BBC series has set an example for other nature documentaries to follow. Whith its unprecedented amount of funding and use of new technology, this series really captures the wonders of our great planet, whilst highlighting the need to preserve it for future generations. The dvd consists of 11 roughly hour long episodes, each covering a different topic, such as deserts, caves and fresh water. There are some great sequences, my favourites being ...
...and the struggle of a polar bear desperatly trying to find food as it starves to death. The last 10 minutes of each episode shows how the footage was filmed, giving a rare insight into the life of a nature camaraman. These short 'how its made' documentaries show just how much sacrifice needs to be made to become a camaraman, but also make you wish you had been the one filming that special sequence. Each episode features the great landscapes of ... Read review
