In honor of Earth Day, Disney Nature Films proudly presents the appropriately titled Earth, a breathtaking observational film that harkens back to the days of those amazing nature flicks the studio made back in the 60's and 70's.
Earth captures the circle of life in all it's spectacle through breath-taking master shots, effective slow motion techniques, and ase-inspiring time lapse photography. Through brilliant cinematography, a stirring score by George Fenton, and heartfelt narration by James Earl Jones, you the viewer will be magically transported to other-worldly landscapes that happen to be located right here on this very planet.
As Earth examines the survival traits of elephants, polar bears, whales, birds, and other species that live amongst us, you will quickly discover that perhaps your own existence isn't nearly as difficult as you once thought it was.
As I marveled at the visual splendor that is Earth, I kept asking myself; "how did they get this amazing stuff on camera?" Thankfully, during the end credits, I got my answer as this glorious film gives a glimpse into some behind-the-scenes footage. A great way to end this magical film experience. If I have any gripe at all, it's that Disney didn't release this breathtaking movie in Imax. I'd pay top dollar to see that.
