Planet Earth III (4K Ultra HD + Blu-ray)

Stunning visuals, like Planet Earth 3. An absolute delight to watch. Sir David Attenborough's narration is excellent and compelling. The moments of drama in these animals lives can be surprisingly emotional! I'm half way through and I'll rate it 5 stars but one small complaint. Every single episode spends the last segment talking about the imminent destruction of the natural environment and biosphere by climate change brought on by human activity. This isn't incorrect, and with a platform as large as theirs I understand why they'd choose to drive the point home. But it's a downer having it at the end every time, leave me feeling happy sometimes! Maybe do the five minutes about how human activity none of us are in a position to do anything about is destroying everything we should protect and cherish in the middle of the episode. Small nitpick really but watching these at my mother's house she was so happy watching the episode and then so sad at the end contemplating the destruction of so many delicate ecosystems. Just a bummer way to wrap up such beautiful documentaries.

Beatiful and interesting videos of coast, ocean, desert, etc. The ecology of it is both interesting and discouraging.

Very good show. Excellent in 4K.

This appears to be the last in the series of nature films narrated by David Attenborough, who is approaching his centenary year! His BBC crew honored that upcoming event by capturing some of the most remarkable footage to date, with locales all over the world, both above and below the water. Nature photography of this caliber is difficult to surpass. The ingenuity of the cinematographers and their extraordinary patience to capture the scenes is beyond comparison. If you own a 4K system, this set is truly one to put its capabilities to the ultimate test. If you have friends who doubt the superiority of current generation video equipment, this is the set to dispel their skepticism. Please don't hesitate in considering buying Planet Earth III, which is usually available at a relatively bargain price.

Always love sitting down and watching the Planet Earth Series, so when V3 was announced I eagerly pre-ordered. So far I have been able to watch Coasts and these are my thoughts: The scenes on the island in Tasmania looked great, then the segment with the angel fish really caught my wife's attention. I enjoyed the segment with the Right whales, I always enjoy hearing the whale population is on the rebound. Next was the segment on the Flamingos off Yucatan, kind of heartbreaking the way the storms affect the breeding grounds. The section with the Lions in nighttime were pretty cool with that new IR technique they use to capture at night. Finally, the rain island and turtles gave for a melancholic ending to the episode. Overall, I thought they did a great job capturing a lot of animal movement with a lot of clarity and mixed in the aerial shots for scale and impact in an effective manner. The colors they were able to capture near the coasts were fantastic, especially in the shots in Mexico, the mangrove, and bay in Argentina. There's only so much to cover that they haven't already done but their formula is solid and provides for an entertaining and informative show. I do want to reiterate, the back of the box only lists "DD 5.1" and has a Dolby Audio logo - in the sound settings menu, ATMOS is available. So, this is strange, as it's the first time I've seen a 4K Blu-ray box only having a DOLBY AUDIO logo and not DOLBY ATMOS. Also, it came in a blue Blu-ray box rather than the black 4K Blu-ray box.

The Planet Earth trilogy commences after 20 years since the original. Hard to believe. Absolutely spectacular and wonderfully beautiful cinematography. Especially if you have the display to present it's visual brilliance. Narrated as expected by the wonderful David Attenborough along nearly 7 hours of content. Excellent footage of creatures you likely have never seen. Although they do pepper in some climate change messaging which can break the immersion. All in all, it's a must own for video purists.

Six discs of 4k BBC nature filmed around tha world. Informative on many of the worlds creatures.

I watched the first four episodes not realizing I was watching the Blu Ray version, which was inexplicably put first in the disc case. Once I started watching the 4k discs properly I realized they are missing out. The 4k is gorgeous and amazing to look at, but every episode ends with a brief 5-10 minute "making of" segment of the episode, narrated by David Attenborough (and sometimes featuring footage from decades old documentaries he was involved in). But these end of episode making ofs are only available on the Blu Ray versions. The 4k episodes just don't have them at the end for whatever reason. This is such a loss because some of them are incredible in showing how different segments of the series are made and sometimes as with the aforementioned clips of decades old documentaries, provide contrasts between what we knew back then and what we know now. Actually I just discovered that the last 4k disc has a single 54 minute "Making of" documentary that contains all these after episode making of segments combined into one. It was probably done for space reasons on the discs but it feels like it should have had each segment included in its appropriate episode, especially if you don't plan on binging the series, it's easier to place the segments being covered with the episode when you've just watched the episode, rather than weeks or months later. EDIT: I discovered that the 54 minute Making Of documentary on the last disc is inexplicably missing the "making of" documentary segments for the last two episodes, which are available normally on the Blu Ray versions included with the episodes. Why these weren't included is unknown.

Spectacular scenery as expected. Highly recommended for all nature lovers!

Likewise with the book, I bought this to accompany seasons 1 and 2. Very good condition.

Typically fantastic photography from BBC and David Attenborough. I had to add a Blu-ray player to our home theater system to watch it on our new 85" 4K TV, but it was worth it. Almost like being there, other than for the greater comfort of our living room. :-) Dolby vision NOT needed. HDR10+ works well enough.
