Rating: - Blue Planet
Excellent, fresh, never before seen footage of some of the most amazing places underwater! Great addition to the Planet Earth collection.

Rating: - One of the top BBC nature productions
This is a sensational documentary of life in the sea. Certainly the best I've seen in a long time. Well organized and incredible photography.

I use parts of it in a class on oceanography to demonstrate life in the ocean in a way that is impossible to describe in a lecture.

Spellbinding and good for all ages.

Rating: - Blue Planet..Awesome and uplifting
I hesitated for a long time before making this purchase...now I know I should have bought this instead of something else. I can ignore the 'facts' about the age of the corals etc...this documentary is truly inspiring, uplifting and eye-opening. Sea creatures I never thought possible, amusing mating styles, and much more...and the narrator is excellent. Relaxing end of day edutainment for me...I'll be watching these over and over again. Thanks BBC.

Rating: - Beautiful but preachy
The potential of this beautifully filmed show is seriously tarnished by the preachy 'humans suck' message. I get enough of this in my daily life. I'd rather not have it fed to me in every single movie, TV show, etc... that I watch. I watch these things to get away from reality for a few minutes...

Rating: - Awesome and Beautiful
I first saw Blue Planet on the Discovery channel... years ago and I absolutely fell in love with it. It is one of the most beautifully filmed documentaries and I think only Planet Earth (ironically) surpasses it in that beauty. I have also always loved David Attenborough, who has a way of really bringing the majesty of whatever you are watching into your home. This series is educational and beautiful to the point of tears. This is a must for any DVD library and I would highly recommend Planet Earth as well.
