Die Welt in den Farben der Nacht

Unmet scenes captured by latest camera technologies proposing a very nice new picture. What a great immersion into the dark side of animals life thanks to cameraman and production.

A glimpse into animal world at night is breathtaking, refreshing and really interesting.

Tom Hiddleston as the narrator is really great to hear. He describes everything really well.

All in all, would recommend.

Only seen the first episode so far, and the cinematography is gorgeous. But I agree with the reviewer who said it lacked diversity and retained a colonial approach to this kind of documentary, and though I didn't really mind Tom Hiddleston, the pacing was ponderous, and the script itself... oy. Suffocatingly anthropomorphic. eg, the lioness didn't "abandon" her cubs. Why not simply say she is forced to leave them to hunt? It's repeatedly said that the Maasai Mara is "a last refuge", sliding in the indefinite article. Just say it plainly: it's one of the last refuges, don't try to imply it's the only one for effect. This kind of melodramatic narration, which never lets up, should have been replaced by smarter, more informative text. I'm curious to to see Night on Earth now, as that uses similar technology.

How beautiful they shoot this video, truly hats off this amazing documentary.

S2 eps of elephant family and puma family are more in-depth than S 1. The other eps are also mostly focused on a lead animal where viewer can appreciate the huge struggle all wildlife must endure simply to survive on this human planet. The cinematography is exceptional, narration by Tom Hiddleston is also very good, though he is forced to pause at times from director. Tom is a Shakespeare an actor with fantastic speaking abilities. Adults can enjoy this series 2, not just kids. No graphic hunt kill shots. Gorgeous at times, even the tiny lives.
