View Details Critic Reviews for Our Planet Season 1 All Critics (30) | Top Critics (12) | Fresh (28) | Rotten (2) David Attenborough's Netflix series offers a strange waltz between wonder and melancholy. The show thrills us with the marvels of nature, and then saddens us that we are rapidly wiping them out. Apr 26, 2019 | Full Review… John Powers NPR Top Critic It's like watching an American drug ad during which a voice-over reads out lists of horrific side effects over footage of frolicking, picnicking families. Frankly, it's about time. Apr 26, 2019 | Full Review… Ed Yong The Atlantic Top Critic The new series is putting all its energy into making an impact, sacrificing entertainment value for a shot at changing a few minds. Apr 5, 2019 | Rating: B+ | Full Review… Ben Travers indieWire Top Critic The camera-work and the colours are exquisite. A lone elephant and zebra walk across an African salt pan, looking like works of art. A flock of flamingos settle on the salt flats after the rains, their chicks knobbly-kneed. Dec 3, 2019 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review… Carol Midgley Times (UK) Top Critic It's awe-inspiring and easy on the eyes. Dec 3, 2019 | Full Review… James Poniewozik New York Times Top Critic Everything had been written for the thickest audience imaginable. At one point, Attenborough explained how clouds released rain. Apr 8, 2019 | Full Review… Camilla Long Times (UK) Top Critic Despite its shortcomings, Our Planet is a series more suitable for today, when climate change seems like an atrocious tragedy. [Full review in Spanish] Jul 26, 2019 | Full Review… Daniel Krauze El Financiero Our Planet is also exceptional television, but a breezy summer escape through nature, it is not. Jun 19, 2019 | Full Review… Miles Surrey The Ringer Filled with majestic views, dazzling imagery and mesmerising natural spectacles, Our Planet is undoubtedly visually stunning, but it is also traumatising. Apr 26, 2019 | Full Review… Sameen Amer The Express Tribune (Pakistan) Even in his 90s, he remains one of the loudest voices warning of imminent ecological disaster. Apr 26, 2019 | Rating: 5/5 | Full Review… Christopher Stevens Daily Mail (UK) Our Planet is not without hope. While the series doesn't directly inform its audience of how to fix this catastrophic problem, it does reassure us that the planet can recover, if we are willing to work together. Apr 26, 2019 | Full Review… Alison Foreman Mashable A wildlife doc that does nothing but talk of potential doom is not a fun one, and the first episode of Our Planet walks the line expertly. It also ends with a sucker-punch that puts the BBC's five-minute-environmental-aside model to shame. Apr 26, 2019 | Full Review… Stuart McGurk GQ Magazine [UK] View All Critic Reviews (30) Audience Reviews for Our Planet: Season 1 Sep 23, 2020 Beautiful scenes. Amazing documentary, it gives you the problem but also gives you hope. Andr F Sep 01, 2020 terrible terrible shaming, watching animals suffer over and over, do not trust the rating of this series Brandon W Aug 02, 2020 Every episode makes me cry. Clare Y Jul 26, 2020 A nature documentary series that focuses on the breadth of the diversity of habitats around the world, from the remote Arctic wilderness and mysterious deep oceans to the vast landscapes of Africa and diverse jungles of South America. Narrated by David Attenborough with his legendary voice, he addresses issues of conservation and it's really heartbreaking and upsetting to see the terrible impact humans and global warming have caused to the wonderful nature that surrounds us and the tragic losses of animals, plants and entire ecosystems that are just unavoidable at this point. Urgent call of action! Johann M May 24, 2020 It was great to get to see this. It would be nice to get a wild animal you like, like a small wildcat an Ocelot. Christina B May 20, 2020 Must Watch Our Planet Behind the Scenes, it is more shock to me how we treat the earth... Connie Y May 03, 2020 I watch this show after finishing BBC Planet Earth 1 & 2, BBC Life, and Frozen Planet. Feel like even with very nice shots, Our Planet is just combinations of above shows with scenes, storylines, and narratives. Nothing is really new or special in comparison with previous shows. Jen N Jan 19, 2020 An education and visual spectacle in one. Rich M Dec 26, 2019 Breathtaking and awe inspiring. This documentary should be shown to every child in the world for them to see what they will inherit, and what they will be responsible for in the future. Extremely well made, reflects the sweat and blood of every one of the 600+ people who contributed to it. Shash C Dec 26, 2019 great videography, terrible propaganda.
