Editorial Review: Discount Shopping: This spectacular IMAX documentary has been meticulously transferred to provide one of the most stunning DVDs available, with image quality so vivid that it seems almost three-dimensional. Of course, it doesn't hurt that the images themselves are amazing, consisting of some of the finest nature cinematography you're ever likely to see, following a year of seasonal change in the "circle of life" of East Africa's Serengeti plain. Photographed entirely on location in Kenya and Tanzania, the 40-minute film chronicles a natural phenomenon that few humans are privileged to witness in their lifetime: the annual great migration, during which over two million wildebeests, zebras, and antelope travel 500 miles across the plain to ensure their survival. It's an awesome display of natural wonders, and of course there's danger as well as beauty, with lions, crocodiles, and cheetahs among the predators of migrating wildlife. The images range from wondrous to horrifying to hilarious, forming a portrait of life and death that remains powerful even after repeated viewings. The DVD is truly intended for a global audience, with eight optional audio tracks in English (narrated by James Earl Jones), Bavarian, French, Castilian, Catalan, Japanese, Korean, and Mandarin. --Jeff Shannon Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Buyer beware...If you own BBC Planet Earth in Blu-Ray and purchase this, YOU WILL BE VERY SORRY. First the quality is not good when you compare it to Planet Earth. Yes, it's better than DVD but the shooting, dynamic range, and image quality is just bad (not to mention the poor transfer/encoding). This would have been amazing 10 years ago but not by Blu-Ray standards today. You even see dust particles show up in some frames and some are huge. There is no reason for this at all in this day and age. I have no idea ...

(2) Carnivores eat herbivores. The place profiled is the Serengeti, a huge area of grassland in Tanzania, East Africa. The narrator is Darth Vader himself, James Earl Jones, whose voice adds another dimension to this mesmerizing ... Read More Rating: - BEAUTIFULThe is why you buy blu-ray disk and Plasma TV. The images are off the charts if you are into nature and nature shows this is a must for your collections. AWESOME!!! Rating: - Wow!This was a great video if you believe in the Circle of Life. I watched it 3 times in one sitting because I wanted to see more. And each time I watched it, I noticed more detail and heard more facts! Should be viewed w/ low lighting in the room and you'll feel like you're on the Serengeti with James Earl Jones! Rating: - SUPERBThis is a fantastic armchair look at the Serengetti, a place I'll never see on my own and can only rely on professional cinematographers to make it live. It appeals to all ages and the photography is so vivid, it seems like the animals can come directly through the screen. James Early Jones is the perfect narrator.
