Editorial Reviews:
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.

Summary: Very nice to show off the HDTV
Comment: Very good show, great IMAX like experience on a 73" Mitsu HDTV, looooove that Blu-Ray!

Summary: Wouldn't buy this if I had seen before
Comment: I bought this walking through the airport, expecting it to be one of the collection of BBC programmes. Got back to my home country, popped it in, and was very dissapointed. Quality did not seem to be up to blu-ray standard of picture quality.

My own fault, I believe I mistook this product for "The Blue Planet - Seas of Life", which I have not seen thus far, but I believe is up to the standard of the BBC programmes. In comparison to the BBC line of Blu-rays available, this Blue Planet pales in comparison (not 100% certain that this is not part of the BBC line, but just by comparison of the quality, it definitely does not seem to be).

For really stunning visuals, great narration, entertaining and suitable soundtrack, and an enjoyable, engrossing learning experience, get Planet Earth, and the remaining BBC line - Galapogos, Wild China, Ganges.

Summary: Beautiful Images...
Comment: This is a great video and a must-have for any HD nut out there... unfortunately HD-DVD lost the format war but it can still be purchased on Blu-Ray.

Customer Rating:

Summary: Not what I expected
Comment: After watching and loving the Planet Earth movies I got this one for my husband. It is interesting, but not nearly as well done as the Planet Earth movies. I lost interest and had a hard time following some of the shots they were talking about from space. It's ok, informational but if you want to get something REALLY good - get Planet Earth!

Customer Rating:

Summary: Rent it
Comment: Don't buy this one, just rent it. It's not that entertaining and I would stick to Planet Earth and The Blue Planet (Not this one, but it has the same title).
