4.0 out of 5 stars Good, but longer than broadcast version, July 13, 2011

This review is from: The World's Biggest and Baddest Bugs [Blu-ray] (Blu-ray)

This appears to be longer and have more video than what I have seen in broadcast versions. Which is fine. But for our kids it made it extra long. Quality isn't really great for BluRay, but better than DVD and the price was right when I bought it. If you like the broadcast version, just be aware that this is significantly longer. This can be good and bad.

This review is from: The World's Biggest and Baddest Bugs [Blu-ray] (Blu-ray)

"The World's Biggest and Baddest Bugs" not only showcases big bugs, but also other bugs like ants, spiders, and bees. It runs about 87 minutes, so it is a long look at bugs. I thought it was going to be all about bugs, but the entomologist, Ruud Kleinpaste, sidetracks into other related subjects like insect oxygen and praying mantis kung fu which are interesting and sumo wrestling which is less interesting. There are closeups of some insects, which I like. What I really wanted was more close-ups.

Don't feel like you have to watch the whole video. We're just looking at bugs here. I personally suggest that you just look at the bugs you want to examine.

Here's a list of some of the big bugs covered by Mr. Kleinpaste.

Giant Cockroach
Helicopter Damselfly
Praying Mantis
Weta
Centipede
Leaf Insect
Stick Insect
Goliath Spider
Hercules Beetle

Other bugs include the following.

Stinkbug
Bombardier Beetle
Army Ants
Bullet Ant
Bark Scorpion
Black Widow Spider
Funnel-Web Spider
Mosquitoes
Africanized Honey Bees (Killer-Bees)

Guess how many times Mr. Kleinpaste gets stung by the bees?

the star of this movie is nutty. he goes a little overboard to prove a point. so some of his gags are not that great.
