3/4
To no one’s surprise, Barack Obama makes an ideal, engaging tour guide, dispensing wit and the wisdom with his classy, confident demeanor. Go to Full Review Daniel Fienberg The Hollywood Reporter 04/12/2022
While there may be some jaded critics immune to the cuteness of a juvenile orangutan, I’m surely not. Go to Full Review Graeme Tuckett The Post NZ 05/03/2022
Our Great National Parks is probably the best “family viewing” option Netflix has to offer right now. Very recommended. Go to Full Review Joly Herman Common Sense Media 04/27/2022
5/5
Educational content abounds, and not only are the visual visits to places like the Great Barrier Reef or the Patagonia stunning, but the snorts, whispers, and growls of the animals we're brought to observe are fantastic. Go to Full Review Mike Scott Times-Picayune 04/16/2022
Complemented by stunning nature photography and masterful storytelling, Our Great National Parks is an Attenborough-level effort -- entertaining, informative and awe-inspiring, all at once. Go to Full Review Joel Keller Decider 04/14/2022
While Our Great National Parks doesn’t do anything new in the nature docuseries genre, the cinematography is spectacular, and Obama gives just enough of a different narration style to make the series very accessible. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

See more Cristina S 10/21/2022 No daddy attenborough, but still very good. im an attenborough purist and i loved it See more joanna d 09/11/2022 Stunning nature cinematography comes together with the soothing tones of Barack Obama, who combines wit, humour and class with an important message. The Emmy for Narration is well deserved. See more Pablo B @PabloBlanco 08/07/2022 Great visuals, but Barack is taking a page out of AlGore's book for doomsday scenarios. This documentary will not age well. See more 06/09/2022 Good visuals, but the narration couldn't relax me See more 06/02/2022 I am a sucker for nature docs ever since seeing Planet Earth on my first flat screen TV around 2004. I appreciated the unique angle this doc took in focusing on a few of the diverse national parks found around the globe and showcasing the wildlife found there through the context of conservation. Many nature docs are leaning harder and harder into this message of global environmental conservation, which I greatly applaud, because at these extinction rates there soon maybe little nature left to document.
