Directed by Jon Long, this 45-minute IMAX production travels across the globe not only in an attempt to instill a proper sense of awe, but also to encourage the preservation of the environment as a whole. Among the locations highlighted are the mountains of Vancouver, New Zealand's white sand beaches, the deserts of Namibia, the canyons of Arizona and Utah, and the Alaskan wilderness. In addition to the landscapes, animals and people indigenous to the areas are highlighted in an effort to showcase the ecological and biological diversity of the planet. ~ Tracie Cooper, Rovi
This is for nature lovers only. If you are the type of person that does not enjoy or respect the outdoors, you will find this movie very boring. It's a documentary of various places on our planet with dialogues from the locals. It was a learning experience for me. It reminded me of how much I appreciate and respect nature.
Lots of great images of nature and animals. There is some nice time lapse work too. It's much more amazing than anything you've seen on TV. There is a bit of comentary and 'words of wisdom' from people who are still living off the land in various parts of the world. When friends come over, I often leave the video playing in the background because the cinematograhy is so good.
If you like this movie, I would suggest you also check out Baraka.
Linda M....go to church and pray for the ability to enjoy nature, without sounding like a religious nut. Good movie for teens, especially if they do not possess the understanding that there is life outside of texting, xbox, Wii, and the internet.
If you are inclined to doubt the theory of evolution this may not be the best choice for you to watch. The scenery was beautiful - it just wasn't our cup of tea.
My son and I love to watch nature documentaries and this one has some stunning scenery. The only drawback is that you wish that there was more time spent in each area of the world instead of getting just a small snippet. However, that being said, it would be a great movie to introduce youngsters to the experience of learning about other cultures because of the quick transition from one to the next.
