An Incredible Entriy into the HD World(Rating: 5)
We saw a regular version of this on a friend's rear view projection screen and it was spectacular. We had recently bought a 1080p Panasonic flat screen and blu-ray player and thought that PLanet Earth Blu-ray version might be a great first video to see on this format. We were simply blown away! The details, sharpness, range of colour and most incredible views of this marvelous planet jump out, along with a super sound track, to make this a breath-taking visual experience. The advances of high definition combined with the most mind boggling photography make Planet Earth one's top choice in the video library. Truly a visual delight!

Planet Earth the complete series(Rating: 5)
BBC and Attenborough - immediately it bespeaks QUALITY! and here one could exhaust their vocabulary of superlatives.

It's barely possible and highly unlikely that anyone will be able to equal the magnificence of stunning scene after scene presented here! Not even the many people who created this!

Another viewer mentioned the breath-taking segment on the snow leopards, their luxuriant fur almost comes out of the screen at you like 3D.

If your budget necessitates sacrificing something else to purchase this - make the sacrifice and reward yourself and your loved ones with something they will want to see again and again.

This BBC DVD is amazing.
Having watched the series on TV it's even better now I've watched the extras on how they got the footage.

Absolutely Stunning!(Rating: 5)
I absolutely love this DVD set. The quality of the photography is absolutely unprecedented in all other nature movies I have seen (I've seen a fair amount). The narration is informative but not intrusive- you get to feel like you're really right there seeing all corners of the earth. The only warning (if you intent to watch it with young family members) is that since it really is a realistic view of nature there are more than a few hunting scenes that although fascinating, may upset some kids.

difference between the HD and the SD versions (Rating: 5)
It's a tough decision, whether to chose the sd variant (5 DVDs) with lots of other features but a lower image quality, or the Blue ray one(4DVDs), where you have astounding images, period.
