  Review by Two Cineasts ★★★★★ 4

  BEAUTIFUL
  ===========

  "This is the great unending cycle"
  -Patrick Stewart, Narrator-

  I haven't seen anything like this before even though I saw a lot of documentation. You can pause the movie anytime and frame the picture. The camera is from close, to far away, but the makers never interfered with the natural behavior of the animals. I can't possibly imagine how they managed to get some of the shots. At various scenes I thought "That is CGI now" especially when thousands of animals are in the picture, but it's surprisingly not. Also the time laps were beautiful filmed. So many places around the globe are making the movie diversified. From birds that try to fly over the Himalaya, to whales…

  Review by DarkLord98 ★★★★½

  Earth ist eine sehr gelungene, interessante Dokumentation über unseren Heimatplaneten. Wir beginnen bei dem Nordpol und enden in der Antarktis, wir reisen um die komplette Erde und bekommen dabei zu Gesicht, wie gegensätzlich unser Planet doch eigentlich ist. Wie die meisten Dokus ist auch diese sehr informativ und spannend. Earth schafft es aber vor allem nie zu langweilen, denn oft weden Dokumentationen irgendwann recht uninteressant und langatmig, nicht so Earth, denn durch das genau richtige Pacing wird es nie öde.
  Auch bringt einen diese Doku des öfteren zum Schmunzeln, regt aber auch zum Nachdenken an und nicht zuletzt beeindruckt sie immer wieder, sowohl mit erstaunlichen Fakten, ich denke jeder, egal wie gut er sich auskennt, wird in der Doku noch…

  Review by johannkreisler ★★

  like all of these mainstream animal documentaries, this one as well plays with the uncanny ambivalence of montage to create a "story" which is relatable to humans. the shooting of these images becomes a violent act of essencializing animalistic identity. the most brutal it gets through the overlaying dramatizing musical score which is clearly coded as a western colonial appropriation. the music takes side of the victim in a battle of life and death but the carnivor needs to eat as well as the herbivore, so there is no side in nature. the lighter music is heard when a caterpillar is eating a plant but the plant is a breathing living thing as well as. even more crucial to animal…

  YouTube review of Earth, as part of my Celebrating Disney series... www.youtube.com/watch?v=1PCKmUQQy5I

  83/100

  A fantastic Disneynature documentary which explores the beauty of Planet Earth and all the wonderful creatures that surround us. While this is a condensed movie version of the excellent Planet Earth series which originally aired on BBC (I have great memories watching that in 5th grade), Earth is still able to stand on its own two legs and is a great alternative for families with younger kids.

  The cinematography is spectacular, there's plenty of creatures explored throughout this 90 minute feature, the film does a great job of showcasing both the daily lives and struggles of this fantastic creatures, and the extra icing on the cake??? It's…

  Review by Ahaskell24 ★★½ 1

  Absolutely gorgeous to look at but aside from that and some very good narration from James Earl Jones this just wasn't that interesting for a majority and is honestly really forgettable (my friends and I finished this a couple of hours ago and I've already forgotten most of it). I usually like nature docs but there just wasn't really enough here for me overall and it was really disappointing. That ostrich was cool though!
