I found it to be a good positive outlook on start of humanity. Just don't take everything seriously and just listen. Sure, we all have views in our mind how might it started. Suggestion to those who want to watch this is just give a chance. The music is good and actors did great job.
Of course, there are some inaccuracies here and there, but I guess that that much cinematic freedom must be given in order for this documentary to not turn boring.
Dramatisation has been kept to the minimum so that this film is enjoyable while not straying too far from hardcore science.
Must watch for every homo sapien on this planet.
Stories are a bit far fetched, but rather let your imagination run with it
What a great journey. I don't know if all of the facts are correct, but they seem to be. To me, the reflections of humanity in our early ancestors are interesting. I see some other comments here saying the timeline isn't correct, but this story and the archeology is changing all the time anyway, so I imagine it would be tough to get this spot on. In any case, really fascinating to see this brought to life.
The make up is better than expected, and while artistic license has been taken with the narrative, they are good examples of behaviours.
An ambitious and enjoyable film. It does seem to have the feel of a TV documentary, which perhaps it is.

If the males of each species were really as awful as this "documentary" claims, we would never have managed to evolve at all. Useless things don't survive. Bad ideas don't survive. Male and female genders of each species have a distinct purpose, and are neither good or bad. But you wouldn't know it from watching this gender studies hot garbage. Don't waste your time. If there was an evolutionary biologist involved in this production, they should be ashamed of themselves.
That said, the production values were actually not bad. It was pretty to look at. The actors were fine, even if the makeup was a little uncanny valley.
