Human Planet

As much as I hate the fact that we're ruining this planet for all the other species (but also ourselves), I must say Human Planet is probably the best of all the nature documentaries. The cinematography is excellent, the stories sublime and so very human, and John Hurt (rest in peace, War Doctor) is an amazing narrator, definitely on par with Attenborough. The "Behind the Lens" segments at the end are especially brilliant.

If you haven't seen Human Planet yet, do so. You won't regret it.

I was looking to find some other documentaries about human life because I remembered seeing this documentary and wanted something just like it.

The only reason why I was looking for this type of documentary is because this one was so amazing. I feel like 2 years after I watched this documentary it still my favorite. It's about the humans we normally never see. As a traveler it is very interesting apart from the fact that graphics are just stunning. This documentary also gives me the feeling that I want to get out there and look for these kind of groups myself.

I would recommend this documentary to everyone (have been doing so the last two years).

Human Planet tells the tales of the most remarkable and intuitive humans on this planet. With beauty full landscape shots and relaxing story telling. Human Planet is certainly a pleasure to watch. But it does not only give pleasure to your eyes. It shows strange cultures and their survival, narrated by John Hurt.

There are so many great things here in 'Human Planet'. Its premise is dealt with exceptionally in every single episode, the environments, how they're lived in, how the humans adapt to the environments, the human struggles and how it all affects the environment are all interesting topics and important ones handled truly admirably. Also in a way that is illuminating but not preachy (which is a potential danger with anything environmental-themed and a danger often fallen into).

Every episode is appropriately scored, never intrusive or too low-key, and the different stories are powerful in a harrowing and poignant way, not to mention very honest.

This is The First Time i'm Gonna watch a Documentary Series of this Kind and Probably i'm not going to see anything better than this one in the Future. Amazing.

BBC has done it again. As the worlds leading nature film producer, BBC has given us another epic.

The big line throughout the series is a bit faint and while the episodes have their own theme. The shorts inside an episode sometimes do feel a bit random. But that won't bother you. You will be amazed by some of the bizarre or clever humans we have on this planet.

Although some of the shots are really good. Overall the Human Planet does not live up to the expectations after "Planet Earth" and "Life". Although the Human Planet has a more realistic feel to it because of the use of colour. It doesn't have the WOW factor that its predecessors had, throwing over saturated in HD in your face. Although I do prefer that, the Human Planet is a really nice addition to the best nature series of today.
