Unbelievable images as if you are flying the earth This could only work at the sphere. It is an EXPERIENCE.
If you go in expecting a "movie" you be slightly disappointed. Although it kinda has a story, it is more conceptual sci-if fantasy that's really pulled together by the absolutely amazing images, the sound system, the seating, and the fullness of the "screen".
You will look in all directions and be amazed. This isn't a spoiler review because I am not giving away the "plot".
Sit back and enjoy the ride. Just being at the sphere outside is amazing. If you add that end it's definitely a must-do.

As I couldn't go to The Sphere in Las Vegas to see it I had a partial experience watching in it on youtube where some posters did put all the experience. An experimental movie for viewing in 270º 4D experience shoot in 18k (note: understate 4D as interactive) showing evolution of live in Earth.
Not very innovative as there is more than one movie with these theme for special environments for watching, but very well done as expected by Darren Aronofsky, but not as innovative as I would expect.
Similar to watch Qatsy trilogy. I would score without the interactive experience as a 8.0 out of 10.0 movie / A-

The nature and bustling city visuals were captivating when presented on a screen like that of the Las Vegas Sphere, but there was no need for the science fiction meets global warming Adam and Eve Genesis plot.
I would have been completely happy just watching scenes of the world and its people without the hypocritical climate change narrative and biblical undertone.
The music was well curated for each scene, and it was truly an experience seeing a film in the Sphere; however, combining a politically charged message with a biblical allegory just doesn't sit right with an audience of people in Sin City.

So yes, the images that are used after the first five minutes or so and the picture stretches to fill Spheres screen are stunning at first, but there is nothing to hold the film together: the voiceover is just babble and the two 'actors' are like escapees from a deodorant advert. David Attenborough has been doing something similar on a far smaller budget for the last 50 years.
Go and see it if you're in Vegas to see something on this vast screen but any future films made for screening here need to find someone who can match the images with a storyline and characters that are worth investing time in.

"Postcard from Earth" isn't just a movie; it's a sensory immersion designed to showcase the mind-blowing capabilities of the Las Vegas Sphere. While the film's opening moments felt a touch slow and perhaps a little abstract, it quickly blossoms into a breathtaking visual journey. Once the Sphere's immersive potential is fully unleashed, the experience is nothing short of awe-inspiring. The film itself, a celebration of our planet's natural wonders, is beautifully crafted, but let's be honest: the Sphere is the true star. The sheer scale, clarity, and enveloping nature of the visuals create an experience that transcends traditional cinema. It's a technological marvel, a testament to human ingenuity. "Postcard from Earth" is a worthy vehicle for this groundbreaking venue, and while the film is enjoyable, the Sphere itself is an absolute must-see, a glimpse into the future of entertainment. Prepare to have your perceptions of visual media completely redefined.
