The series offers a series of powerful documents that we live in differently with the planet in which we live. Now, the series offers a real look at the diversity of habitats around the world in a very stunning way. It is a comprehensive view of life on the planet and what it contains in the wild ranging from the remote Arctic and the mysterious deep ocean to the vast landscapes of Africa and the diverse forests of South America and others.
Though it delivers some truly breathtaking, informative, and entertaining footage of the natural world and its myriad inhabitants, the explicit environmental message may well be the series' biggest and most important selling point.
While Our Planet looks and sounds familiar, there's something different about its sterling portraits: a deeply-ingrained sorrow for a world struggling to cope with the ramifications of modernity.
This is a must-watch that is urgent, profound, and glorious in the way all great nature docs are. However this show might be the one to make you want to save the planet, instead of merely just reveling in its wonder.
