From the unique vantage point of 200 miles above Earth's surface, we see how natural forces - volcanoes, earthquakes and hurricanes - affect our world, and how a powerful new force - humankind - has begun to alter the face of the planet. From Amazon rain forests to Serengeti grasslands, Blue Planet inspires a new appreciation of life on Earth, our only home.

This Movie Can Only Be Described With One Word.

a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.

I purchased this on Blu-ray earlier today and watched it with my dad tonight expecting it to be something like the wonderful Planet Earth series. We really enjoyed the first half of the film due to the high quality of the IMAX cameras. The views of the Earth from the space shuttle were magnificent to say the least. But then at the half-way point the documentary took a 'left' turn and became nothing more than a tree--hugger/bleeding-heart piece on how Man is destroying the planet. I mean it was just "Ozone layer this"... and "Rain forest that"... and "Man is making extinct hundreds of undiscovered species every minute". They literally said that; "Undiscovered". OK, if they're undiscovered then how do we know we're causing they're extinction? Listen, I'm not the kind of guy that would throw his Big Mac wrapper out the window of his Hummer while driving through a nature preserve but... Come on! Do these people really think they need to dupe Americans in to buying their liberal B.S. by marketing it as "A spectacular look at Earth like you've never seen before"?! I am sure that some people will/do love this documentary for everything it stands for. But if you're like me and you don't want to be preached at by someone who feels that the best thing you can do for Mother Earth is to kill yourself... then don't bother. Somehow, I'm getting my money back!

I just saw this 42 minute IMAX DVD documentary on a Sony H.D. TV system. Breath taking views of the Earth from various Space Shuttle missions are especially captivating but so are the shots at the ground level and under water.Highly recommended.

This was a good watch, and would have been even better on the IMAX screen. Unfortunately I saw it on DVD, but I would like to talk more about the content. The problem with IMAX films is that they are usually too basic. This movie is good as a whole, but was a bit too basic in telling the audience knowledge they don't already know. I'd rate it a 7/10

I saw this movie at the National Air and Space Museum's Langley Theater in Washington, DC. The views of Earth from space are intense and beautiful, made even more so by the large-screen IMAX format. Highly recommended.
