Editorial Reviews
Using cutting edge research, the latest scientific theories and incredible CGI to bring prehistoric animals back to life, Animal Armageddon — a new mini-series — transports viewers to the center of the most horrific disasters ever to rock our planet. From a cosmic gamma ray burst bombarding the atmosphere, triggering the very first mass extinction, to an asteroid the size of Mount Everest slamming into the Yucatan, killing off the dinosaurs, these terrible natural events caused unparalleled devastation. Throughout the 600-million-year history of animal existence, some 99.9 percent of all animal life that has ever lived is now extinct. Animal Armageddon sheds light on the evolution and extinction of these amazing creatures. From giant predatory sea monsters like the straight-shelled nautiloid, to vicious dinosaurs like Tyrannosaurs rex, to giant mammals like the mastodon, Animal Armageddon outlines the impact nature's wrath had on these animals and the life forms that followed.

This review is from: Animal Armageddon: Target - Earth (DVD)
Interesting and informative, but far too much repetition with the animation. Also, the computer-generated creatures are not nearly as polished or life-like as those produced by the BBC in their Walking with Dinosaurs series.

Over all, the film is pretty good. But keep in mind that many of Peter Ward`s theories are controversial to say the least. So take
them with a grain of salt. Like so many "documentaries" about the prehistoric world, you have to use the term "documentary" a bit loosely since there are really so few hard facts to go on. Much of it is best guess and or speculative. And this one is no different. But keeping that in mind, the ideas are thought provoking and worth consideration even if they are far from proven.
4.0 out of 5 stars

First, I love the Animal Armageddon series. Although it's mostly speculative, it's a great watch and educational. Anyone into ancient history should check it out. However, the fact that you only get half the series is a bit disappointing. I would have loved it, as with others no doubt, if a 2nd DVD with the remaining 3 extinctions was released.
