La nature au clair de lune

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.

Tom hiddlestone should definitely do another show similar to this his voice is soothing and nice to listen to. The visuals on this are nothing short of spectacular absolutely astonishing, I really hope Apple+ makes more content like this with Tom.

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 This kind of melodramatic narration, which never lets up, should have been replaced by smarter, more informative text.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.

You won't believe your eyes and you'll actually keep forgetting this is nighttime you're looking at! They actually discovered absolutely new stuff in science about these enigmatic nocturnal animals while making this series. And Tom Hiddleston's majestic voice adds loads to the awe and wonder of the show.

The Earth at Night in Color stands apart from many documentary series. The latest camera technologies that are used in this series deliver a documentary with a fresh look at nature.

This show documents the lives of various species across the world in different habitats, during nighttime. However, even in the low light, the cinematography we see is in full color!

The photography and camera team for this series must be commended for their astonishing and brave work filming these dangerous and majestic creatures in the dead of night. All of the habitats are so well colored and clear, to the point that I could not differentiate night to day. Narrated by Tom Hiddleston (Thor, Avengers: Endgame) who adds a youthful and professional voice. My favorite part is at the end of each episode when we get a behind-the-scenes look into how a particular episode was shot in the dark. It leaves the audience no questions about how this was filmed; a question many have after watching documentaries about nature.

The film's message challenges the idea 'there is more than meets the eye." While the dark may seem scary and unpredictable, the sun always shines back in the morning.

I give The Earth at Night in Color 4 out of 5 stars and recommend it for ages 10 to 18, plus adults. You can watch it on AppleTV+ now. By Ashleigh C., KIDS FIRST!
