Editorial Reviews

Product Description

Not only is Planet Earth one of the most jaw-dropping, ambitious, nature documentaries the BBC has ever produced, it's now taken on another role: as a superb demonstration disc for the strength of and Blu-ray. Spread over a good ten hours, the series charts life and nature in dozens upon dozens of differing locations around the earth. Diligently and warmly narrated by Sir David Attenborough, Planet Earth calmly goes close in on its subject matter when required, and then pulls out some stunning perspective shots that are simply breathtaking. It's hard to come up with the right superlatives to do the photography on the programme any kind of justice, and that it's married to such fascinating subject matter is all the better. And if you think the original broadcast of Planet Earth was something special, or you were gobsmacked by the picture quality on DVD, just wait until you see it in 1080i HD glory. Particularly some of the broader shots here are all but without parallel, and it's a real reward for those who have invested ahead of the crowd in high definition technology. Presented over five discs, and matching wonderful content to spot-on visual presentation, Planet Earth is now not just a landmark in nature documentary film making. It's also a chartermark of quality for just what HD DVD and Blu-ray can offer. A stunning release, in more than one sense. --Jon Foster

2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing BluRay, December 28, 2009

By	Glenn W. Mitchell MD "Safety doc" (St Louis, MO USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: Planet Earth [Blu-ray] (Blu-ray)

Buyer beware! The series was spectacular on high def TV, so I purchased what I thought would be a true high def package - it turned out to be 1080i, not 1080p and that left me wanting. My projector system simply highlighted the fuzziness of the images and disappointed the family greatly. It needs a warning that it does NOT have the full resolution implied. I did find the right resolution for many of these scenes in the new Disney 'Earth' version in real 1080p, but it does not have the full content or the great narration of the original series.
