Atlântida: Os Segredos da Cidade Perdida

This is an amazing documentary. No matter what people say. Very important and to me all new knowledge. I ended up so curious and not to long after that very sad that there was no next episode. Felt like an open ending. Dig it up, show us more.

Hollywood legend James Cameron and filmmaker Simcha Jacobovici set out on an adventure to find the lost city of Atlantis using Greek philosopher Plato as a virtual treasure map.

And it's not that they found Atlantis, the lost city, once the legendary fictional city of Plato, but it actually existed one day, well at least that's what the evidence points to, I'm very happy, because I was rooting for the success of the troupe, and that that madness, violence, wouldn't it be a waste of money and time... That story, right, a dream in the mind, and a backpack on the back and a lot of willpower to carry it out, and here we have the reward... I liked it...

Besides being an excellent inspiration for a fiction guided tour, part of a highly informative fantasy film, there is nothing but speculative conjecture about Atlantis' location. I recognize that the coordination of the route must have been colossal, the same I fully acknowledge and respect the effort and importance of the work of archaeologists. But the way is presented here, everything looks like Atlantean architecture whatever that is, and without a final location is extremely accommodative. There are those who think that Atlantis sunk because of its decadent society. From Plato's Critias, the island was rich in resources, glowing red metal more precious than gold, the ground providing many plants and animals, including elephants. Research identifies the footprints of the megafauna of the south of the Iberian Peninsula 125,000 years ago, with four-meter-high pachyderms and wild boars weighing more than three hundred kilos. I do not recall them mentioning related findings. On a par with the vast majority of documentaries presented lately with an impressive title, multiple findings boxed in the purpose, hundreds of speculations, and no results that advance the reason for the title. At the video teleconferences they are mostly wearing the same clothes, so next time at least make the docuseries seem real.

The movie is nothing but gross conjecture for the entire length of the film. Will have to have eye surgery due to excessive amount of times I had to roll my eyes. Waste of time

Very interesting look at the origins / location of the city of Atlantis, based on the writings of Plato.

James Cameron only had a cameo in this, despite getting top billing. What this documentary does do, is analyse all the supposed locations of Atlantis, it's colonies across the Mediterranean and into the Atlantic.

It does systemically look at each proposed location, with some archaeological work being done, building a clearer picture of the civilisation until they reach a satisfying (to a degree) conclusion, with evidence, as to where the destroyed city should be.

They need to make a follow-up where they carry out some archaeological work in the final location!!
