4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent footage, fair to good display., April 28, 2008

By	BRB - See all my reviews

If you are considering buying this 1-hour DVD, it is definitely worth it for the footage. It has random aerial views from across the country, including Alaska & Hawaii (similar to Blue Planet). Just the footage of NYC and the WTC is worth the price.

Most to all footage is complied from older PBS shows that I remember seeing in the mid-late 80's. While many shots look to be true HD, others are easily seen as not.

Once again, buy for the footage, but don't expect complete HD satisfaction. Had I known, I would have bought the standard DVD so my family could borrow it.

2.0 out of 5 stars Don't buy this movie, April 29, 2009

By	Will Allen III (Raleigh, NC United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Why not? Well, it's beautifully filmed and a great advertisement for blu-ray, but too short for the money and not that engaging throughout despite some magnificent shots.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great pictures, great quality!, July 4, 2008

By	S. F. Turton - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Over America takes you to the most amazing places in the country. The picture is crisp, and the combination of music and images is very well suited. Narration makes it even more interesting to watch. Money well spent!
