Planète bleue

I rarely ever rate anything 10 after just one watch. I've seen a lot of nature documentaries and this is easily in the top tier.

I work in making documentaries and watching this IMAX short on DVD decades after its making gives me hope I might one day help make something a fraction this beautiful and moving. Without wallowing in the negatives, this documentary reawakened in me the importance of preserving the garden of life on our one and only home.

I obviously highly recommend seeing it and showing it to everyone who loves nature docs - and those that don't too. How do we get politicians to see it so they know they have to put aside the petty issues and stand up in defense of air and water above all?

I saw this movie at the National Air and Space Museum's Langley Theater in Washington, DC. The views of Earth from space are intense and beautiful, made even more so by the large-screen IMAX format. Highly recommended.

You have to understand... this movie was made in 1990. That's about the time half the members of IMDb were born. (sorry, couldn't resist).

This movie is a spectacle to see, but only visually. For a lot of the commentary is either common knowledge now or the circumstances have changed.

As you watch this film, you'll understand why the world is the way it is today. That is, even the "experts", the people who made this film, did not know what would happen in the future.

But those who say this film is nothing to shout about, well, they're just wrong. This movie is a pioneer in environmental awareness and most of all, an achievement in filming as scenes in this movie were never seen before by man.

So, if you ever see this movie and say "oh, it's nothing new..." Think before you speak. This movie was made when the Green House Effect was "imaginary"...

This was a good watch, and would have been even better on the IMAX screen. Unfortunately I saw it on DVD, but I would like to talk more about the content. The problem with IMAX films is that they are usually too basic. This movie is good as a whole, but was a bit too basic in telling the audience knowledge they don't already know. I'd rate it a 7/10

This film was great, but it was put out in the early 90's so keep that in mind when you watch it. Outside of that the filming was amazing. I'm a sucker for this kind of thing, and i always learn something new, with this time being no different. Our earth is amazing, and the things we have done as people are amazing. The warnings were here even in this movie and we are far worse now. Great info and a great movie to learn from. Highly recommend it if you're a earth or space need. I'm sure this was amazing to watch at a IMAX theater, but even on my television it looked great still.

Borrowed from the library and watched on 3-15-2025.
