1.0 out of 5 stars Absolute garbage, January 28, 2009

This review is from: Living Landscapes: Earthscapes - Bali [Blu-ray] (Blu-ray)

I recently went to Bali on my honeymoon, so when I saw this was coming out on blu-ray I couldn't wait to see it and potentially revisit some of my favorite locales. After viewing it, I couldn't be more disappointed with this sorry waste of money. For starters, it is under 48 minutes long, not the 60 minutes that Amazon and the package advertise. Apparently the photographers who shot this video felt is was only necessary to go to approximately 3 places on the whole island and shoot all of their footage there. Clearly they went to the Bali Bird Park and shot at least 15 minutes of footage there of various birds (without giving any credit to the park), thereby misleading the viewer into thinking that these birds are just randomly roaming the island. An additional 20 minutes of footage showed various dragonflies and butterflies...exciting. They advertised that the video includes footage of one of the most breathtaking sights on all of Bali, the Tanah Lot temple. In total there is about 8 seconds of footage of it during the beginning and end credits. There is no footage at all of any of the resort areas, cities, Ubud, the volcanoes, or anyplace else recognizeable. Some of the background music is Balinese, but most of it is muzak garbage. All in all, whether you are a prior visitor to Bali or hoping to become acquainted with this wonderful island, this video will do nothing but disappoint. Avoid it at all costs.

5.0 out of 5 stars VERY EXOTIC - LIKE A VIRTUAL TRIP, September 26, 2010

This review is from: Living Landscapes: Earthscapes - Bali [Blu-ray] (Blu-ray)

Watching this video I became immersed in the rich imagery. I felt like I was on a virtual vacation to this exotic place. The people and culture are wonderous to behold. The beatiful art and design of the buildings is amazing and very different from western culture. The HiDef video really defines things so clearly that you feel like your there. Unbelievable photographic detail allows you appreciate the culture on a very deep and profound level. I highly recommend this videographic adventure!

5.0 out of 5 stars Lush photography and music, February 7, 2009

This is a beautiful film - the high definition brings me right back to my trip there a few years ago. I don't want narration or education I wanted the experience back of being there. When I found this blu-ray I was hopeful that it would deliver that kind of experience.
It makes my living room become Bali and I can step back into the lush jungle, ocean and beautiful countryside instantly when I put this on. It makes my big old flat screen tv something of beauty rather than a kind of cold, gigantic 'thing' on the wall.
I've got quite a few of these living landscape DVDs for this very reason. they're cheap enough so I can bring a variety of 'feelings' to my home. It calms me down and picks up my spirit to watch these and just have them on in the background. I love them.
