Beautiful film sequences and sound effects, which are just on the right side of complementary. Excellent wildlife photography although I admit to fast forwarding through the wild dogs taking down a stag in India.
My main complaint is the irritating and depressing scenes of countries whose governments are allowing their wildlife to be destroyed. For example, the Brazilians destroying their rainforests in order to plant eucalyptus plantations to make....paper!! I know long-industrialized countries have already mostly destroyed their ecosystems, so we haven't practiced what we are now preaching, but why do we have to watch this? Can we do anything about it? The answer is not unless we work in the Brazilian department of agriculture, or make decisions in investment companies as to which paper companies to invest in around the world! We are all part of an industrial-commercial web and cannot easily unpick another part of it. So why show us these scenes? The narrator could just tell us in a few seconds, in order to make the point and move on. We watch these problems to enjoy the beautiful wildlife our planet has to offer, in all its violence and beauty. Not to be sneakily force-fed how other countries are incessantly destroying it to improve their finances!
