Das schöne Amerika

The cinematography is stunning and perfectly edited. Really quite beautiful. However, it is ruined by the narration. Why in the world have Michael B. Jordan narrate it?? You might as well have had my neighbor, Frank do it. They have equally lackluster voices. Morgan Freeman too expensive??

Micheal B Jordan's voice over is so dry and mono tone and sometimes incomprehensible it ruins an otherwise stunning documentary. Why put so much effort to capture these amazing visuals and ruin it with a terrible voice over ? The person who thought his voice suited this documentary should be fired for ruining this otherwise amazing documentary.

1. Awesome videography 2. Jordan's voice is so clear and soothing 3. Kid friendly video ( so no oh **** change channel surprises.

4. Yes, animal world is cruel, but then we don't need to show all the cruelty in all videos. Kids just can't handle it.

If you are looking for a kid friendly animal series that you can show to your kids to learn about animal planet, then you found one.

I hope Disney soon makes few more like this.

If this doesn't encourage people to dust off their hiking shoes and take full advantage of what this great country has to offer, then I don't know what will! Thank you for reminding us of the beauty that awaits us, just outside our front door. Although a stroll through the woods, walk along the beach or hike in the desert may not expose us to the intricate details of nature's "Heroes" as shown in this documentary, we can discover our own connection to nature, if we just pay attention.

As I watched the series, I was enchanted by the tiny creatures, respectful of the strength of the hierarchy animals and in awe of the landscape. The technically advanced way in which you chose to help us see this great country afforded the viewer a new and exciting experience. The subject matter was fascinating. What a wonderful world we have all around us!

The music created by your group of composers is the proverbial, "icing on the cake". Without the grace of the violin strings, plucking of the guitar/banjo or intense beat of the drums, the series would not have the power it holds. Music is the driving force behind most of what entertains us on the big screen. The musical talent, behind the scenes should take a bow. Bravo!

I applaud your entire crew of talented people behind your masterpiece! Congratulations!

Given that it's done by National Geographic and Disney, it's no wonder it comes off as a modern take on Disney True Life Adventures. The photography is flawless and stunning, but the narration is more anthropomorphized feel good aimed at elementary school kids than actual scientific education. That's not necessarily a bad thing if it gets kids interested in nature and caring for the planet.
