    A Masterpiece!

    Am amazing series will worth watching. Can't stress enough how well produced this is. Many thanks for giving us this unique look into the animal kingdom. This is visually stunning. Still in awe how they were able to capture such intimate moments. The narration is one of the best I've heard. Basset's soothing voice leads you through this captivating journey. I hardly ever write reviews but I felt compelled to give credit where it is due. Haven't been able to stop watching. It's always nice to watch a documentary that teaches you so many new things about these remarkable creatures. I see many awards in the horizon.

    EXCELLENT DOCUMENTARY

    ANGELA BASSETT WAS FABULOUS AS THE NARRATOR IN THIS DOCUMENTARY!! VOICE IS SO REGAL AND POWERFUL. ALTHOUGH MOST INFORMATION I ALREADY KNEW IT WAS STILL INTERGTRING AND INFORMATIVE TO WATCH, FOR THE INFORMATION I DID NOT HAVE A CLUE ABOUT. THE ANT DISCUSSION WAS RIVETING. I HAD NEVER HEARD OF AN ORCHID BEE BEFORE. THE BONOBOS SECTION WAS INTERETING AS WELL. HOW THEY WORKED TOGETHER TO ENSURE NEW MOTHERS WERE TAKEN CARE OF ALONG WITH THE NEWBORS. LIKE A COMMUNAL MOMMY AND ME DAYCARE. HUMANS CAN LEARN A GREAT DEAL FROM ANIMALS AS FAR HAS HOW TO WORK TOGETHER AND SACARFICE ON SELF FOR THE GREATER GOOD.

    Finally A New Take On Documentaries

    It's an all female produced, edited, and narrated documentary that spotlights female animals which I can only assume provoked the 1 star reviews. How sad that such an amazing piece of work is overlooked due to sexism. The cinematography is thrilling. Capturing these clips takes extreme talent and experience and we see that here, but what I absolutely loved is the soundtrack and editing. It worked so well with the shots and I have rewatched the end of the hyena episode over and over. I've never had a documentary evoke the emotion this series made me feel. Angela Basset is a force of nature and her narration seals the deal for me.

    Boring as watching clouds floating by in the sky

    The main problem of this documentary serial is the narrator, whose voice is way to low, vague and spiritless without energy. Even by increasing the volume, her low tiresome voice still became so difficult to catch sometimes. To tell the stories about the queens in the wild animal kingdoms, you need to use clear, strong and energetic voice to deliver the powerful, sometimes predictable, sometimes not quite predictable situations when those queens of the different species become weak and old and inevitably ousted by the young, upcoming and more vicious ones who come to take over and become the new queens. Yet this weak narrator's voice simply failed to deliver such wild animals' world.

    The other weakness of this documentary is the random editing that jumped around. Often when we just got into that specific animal's world, it suddenly cut it short and began to tell another animal's stuff. Besides, all the contents of this documentary are already well-known and old information that we don't really want to renew or relearn. This is a very boring fact finding documentary that we could do without, especially with such terrible choice of a weal, seamless female voice just because the documentary needs to tell, that in animal kingdoms, the female ones usually reign over the males and the other females. Sounds more like a feminist's production, don't you think?

    I could only watched the first episode and decided to quit in the middle.

    3 months for bee, 4 years for nat geo

    Nat geo guys must be paid well to wait for this much time to make a video worth watching. This documentary was different from the things BBC films (both are fixed on animals anyway). And, the music mix was accurately paced. I guess when the whole world was preparing for coronavirus, you guys took a flight to africa and then the other places with every itinerary already laid out, combined with the approximate or fixed time for the end of the filming which I guess was parallel with the pandemic. There are things which are above my thinking grade. Well, Thanks for the animal kingdom for let them shoot and nat geo.
