Rated 5 out of 5 stars
One of the coolest documenteries ever
This has some of the most breathtaking footage ever filmed. I look at some of the shots and I am completely amazed at how they got them.

Top 5 Blu-Ray Must Have
When I was in high school, I was never into environmental science and nature. Now as a college student I still am not much into the subject; however, I am amazed by the information and quality given in this collection. As of now, I have watched throughout 4 of the 6 discs of Planet Earth and 1 out of 4 Discs of Life.
I have been watching these excursions on an LED television with a few extra speakers and a small subwoofer. The quality of the video seems too real and the captured footage seems as if they were in the eyes of nature itself. The colors shown from short scenes of the Earth from space are beautifully vibrant. David Attenborough does a good job narrating. The discs do not offers much on the extras which is why I gave it a lower rating. It is not the reason I purchased this collection, so it does not bother me.
For a phenomenal viewing experience this must be watched and it must be on none other than Blu-Ray. I haven't seen the preview for Frozen Planet, but I have a feeling I may purchase this collection as well.

Excellent Blu-ray Package
These two packaged together is a great set. David Attenborough is great with the narrative on both of these sets. The imagery is wonderful. Audio is suitable, but good for the set.
