The Green Planet

After hearing about this show and watching the trailer I was extremely excited to start watching, and when I started doing so I quickly realized this was even above my expectations.

I honestly had not felt this way about a documentary since Planet Earth and Planet Earth 2, two documentaries that really went above and beyond compared to anything else from their time, pioneering and taking documentary making to the next level.

Such is the case with "The Green Planet" which presents itself as a legitimate heir, able to withstand the weight of the crown.

The most impressive and revolutionary aspect of the show is without a doubt the way in which they managed to capture the dynamism of plant life , greatly thanks to revolutionary camera and filmmaking technology and know-how, produced by a team of veterans, toped with the well-polished narrative style of David Attenborough and backed by what I can only imagine were hours upon hours of extensive and well-directed work.

This is an absolute gem of a documentary series and I would greatly recommend it to anyone.

I was watching the whole show with a little smile, like how amazing these phenomenons are and we don't even pay attention to these details. Amazing camera work.

There are no words for when its comes to nature documentaries by bbc,and legend david attenborough him self!i loved the every minute of it,tiney details also important,the camera crew did absolutely amazing job!!

The closest we get in the UK to a Miyazaki-style nature spirit is the kindly and ancient Attenborough, and finally he ushers the "Planet" franchise into the weeds of the plant world. I've been waiting for this series excitedly for about three or so years and it doesn't disappoint - any worries that non-animals would make for dry television are allayed the moment you see the seamless almost stop-motionlike presentation of plants in ultra-speed going about their business. It's mesmerising stuff like a tremendously serene lost Jan Svankmajer film and drifts through each biome revealing startling new things in each one. Here's hoping there are infinitely more planets to be revealed, even long after the tree spirit has departed this realm.

I am so pleased to see the legend back on location, creating yet another stunning, eye candy documentary series. The amazing footages shot using cutting edge filming technology display the wonderful world of plants, their beauty and their majesty. These documentaries stand much taller than all the violence packed, gratuitous-sex-scenes junk being churned out by Hollywood. I hope Sir David Attenborough will live for many years to come to bring the beauty of the Planet Earth before our eyes.
