    Animal Survival...or Not

    (Flash Review)

    Made by the same top notch team from BBC from Planet Earth, this focuses on the predators and their pray and their ability to survive. While the predators often came up short, their successes were tastefully observed. A few bits of footage were reused from Planet Earth and keeps the usual editing structure. It ends with its usual PSA about saving certain animals that are dwindling due to human activity. This was excellent and not as vicious as it may sound.

    Another Must See From Attenborough & The BBC.

    The Hunt is yet another spectacular offering from the BBC, voiced by the legendary David Attenborough & with the stunning backdrop of natures hunters going about their business, it is an absolute must see. The opening 2 episodes have delivered what you would expect from the BBC, stunning shots & footage of animals like we have never seen before. From monster crocs waiting patiently to feed, tiny spiders that can fire web like Spiderman, Polar Bears making us laugh as they try to sneak up on seals, it's incredible stuff. This joins a long line of Attenborough and BBC nature films, and yet again they have delivered beautifully.

    9/10 so far from me.

    Wow, I'm blown away.

    This tv series is incredible. I'm blown away by the camera work, the scenes they managed to capture and the story!!! They tell a story with each episode or part that just plays on all the emotions. I found myself rooting for the predator, then the prey, then back to the predator, etc. it's just incredible. Easily one of the best things I've ever watched. It's incredibly raw and brutal at times. Not with blood and guts, nothing explicit, just the story!!! Have I mentioned the story??? Haha, wonderful. 10/10.

    Spectacular, brilliant, and mind-blowing!

    This series is spectacular. My kids love it, although it is very scary (and cruel) for little children. Perfect for kids ages 12-16. The camera, the music, and the stories are absolutely amazing. One of the best, if not the best, documentary about Nature that I've ever seen. Do not miss it! 10 / 10

    Reality that is better than movies!

    BBC always makes incredible wildlife documentaries and even though The Hunt isn't as widely advertised or popular as others, it is by far the most thrilling narrative of the deadly predator prey relationship drama! Although the documentary is primarily focused on predators in the natural world, it isn't simply a compilation of footage of hunts but rather a holistic view of the challenges predators face in their struggle to survive. And David Attenborough can do no wrong.! Definitely a must watch!
