Five years in the making, Earth follows the influence of the sun on life on the planet using three main characters, polar bear, elephant and humpback whale, to tell the story. The natural history of our planet has never been filmed on such a scale before. Earth uses resources and technology on an unprecedented scale, to reveal rarely observed animal behaviours.

Some exceptional filming of wild life, but for my family, far too long sequences of animals being chased and killed by other animals. One would have been plenty.

have been spent on showing some of the incredible insect life which is equally part of the Earth. This whole section was totally ignored.The laboured Global Warming message was a bit much as well.
Wow! This is an impressive documentary, beautifully filmed, and shows off the blu ray format. Be warned, though, those with sensitive children may not enjoy some of the brutality of nature.

Breath-taking pretty much sums it up. A beautiful film capturing the essence of the wonders of this planet. Good to have the reminder of global warning dotted in throughout also. Thought provoking....get ready to be inspired!

thought this would be more 'wonders of the world' than baby animals being ripped apart. Great way to depress an evening.A beautiful movie. It is devastating to see what we are doing to our planet, and worse still that so few people seem to care. This is an amazing documentary, which shows us the best that Earth has to... Read more
offer, and hopefully motivates us to want to keep it that way.Makes you think long and hard about what dreadful things we're doing to our planet and the way Mother Nature intended it to be. It's more fragile than we think and after watching this - which isn't... Read more
any bit close to scaremongering, just gently informing the viewer about the facts - I was more determined to make sure I don't destroy our beautiful planet. The polar bear thing just killed me...Watch it. Then watch it again. The Earth - it's beautiful! Breath-taking cinematography. Really made me want to go out there and explore the wonders of our planet because it truly is wonderful.
