Planète Hostile

Don't understand all these people bragging about politics and a hidden agenda. This movie was about animal drama and all the external factors which does have an effect on them. Climate change and elevated temperatures are there especially at the mountains and polar areas. Nothing political about that.

A lot of the moments I've seen in Planet Earth, Blue Planet, and Life Story but nothing in nature ever happens -exactly- the same twice so it doesn't feel terribly repetitive. Unless perhaps this is all BBC's unused footage repurposed, but I don't think a giant like Nat Geo would need to do that. The footage is just as gorgeous and thrilling, and Bear Grylls is a great narrator. Did they really fly him out to all those remote locations around the world just to shoot the 2 second intros/outros?

This Series is a true masterpiece of photography and documentary film making. The visuals are stunningly beautiful and the soundtrack brilliantly compliments the spectacular visuals. This is a truly wonderful show. Its prominent references to climate facts are also exceedingly brave for a documentary aimed at a primarily American audience - The high levels of scientific illiteracy and science denial in the U.S. will no doubt result in a 'hostile' reception among some.

I watched all latest David Attenborough documentaries and this one is just as good. Footage is amazing, this is an undertaking of gigantic proportions. As for the "political" part, all I can say to those climate change deniers is to paraphrase JFK during The Cuban Missile Crisis: If we ... do what they want us to do (which in this case is nothing), none of us will be alive later to tell them that they were wrong.

One of the most fascinating and incredibly shot documentaries I have seen in recent memories. Its impossibly hard to fathom how they shot it. If you have as fervent a taste or even a few degrees less for wildlife docs... this should truly enchant you. Must watch !
