Planet Earth


Planet Earth (TV series), 2006. Unprecedented footage of the natural world. Directed by Alastair Fothergill. Starring David Attenborough.

Concept: 2/4 (Indifferent)
Story: 2/4 (Indifferent). They did pretty well to find stories to tell, considering the non-narrative format of the show. A couple parts are even suspenseful.
Characters: n/a
Dialog: 3/4 (Good)
Pacing: 3/4 (Good)
Cinematography: 4/4 (Great)
Special effects/design: 4/4 (Great)
Acting: 3/4 (Good)
Music: 2/4 (Indifferent)
Subjective Rating: 8/10 (Great, 4/4). The ultimate nature documentary. I don't usually like this sort of show, but this is gripping. You can't look away from the screen for a second on account of the awesome.
Objective Rating (Average): 3.0/4 (Good)
