Review: The BD option simply offers further visual and sonic thrills and involvement which really have to be experienced to comprehend - This series was shown for the first time on television in 2016 and created considerable admiration for the latest levels achieved in the photography. The broadcast experience, both visually and sonically, was arguably the best yet in a very long run of natural world triumphs. These have regularly pushed the boundaries of technology relative to their vintage at the time of recording and this series is no exception in that line of development. The likely question for those considering whether to stick with the broadcast version as probably recorded at home, or whether to invest in the disc version, is 'Are there still more technological wonders yet to be unlocked via a BD disc?' Having now experienced the BD version, but not the DVD, the answer to the question is most certainly ‘Yes’ particularly when combined with the increasing use of 4K television. The gain in clarity of both vision and sound is startling. This has the effect of making the viewing experience significantly more involving. At this point it is worth mentioning that the specially composed music makes a great deal of positive impact in terms of creating general ambience and, more particularly, in enhancing the dramatic effects of action sequences. A simple example of this would be the chase sequence between a baby Marine Iguana and the pursuing hordes of snakes. The degree of personal involvement that the viewer is immediately drawn into results from a remarkable fusion of vision and specific sound. Many similar examples could be drawn from the desert, jungle and following episodes and are a valuable addition to the main features. The commentary by David Attenborough for many viewers, and that includes this one, is an integral part of the success of these programs. At all times the depth of his understanding and his commitment and belief in what he says is absolute. It takes the experience far beyond casual, although awe-inspiring, visual entertainment and deeply into the realm of studies. These are delivered in a way that transforms what could be an academic exercise into a gripping natural drama that has implications for all life on earth. The responsibilities for all forms of life are made clear as well as the consequences of failure. Quite apart from the main feature of each program there are also the additional 10 minute documentaries added on which give a significant insight into the making of part of each program. One documentary in this series, for example, features the team enduring the most unimaginably inhospitable environment in their attempt to capture the behaviour of penguins. The privations for the team are extreme and lead from utter dejection to final ecstatic success. On the other hand, the fear of the lone cameraman at night in his city-based hide when spotted by a fully grown wild leopard at pouncing range is palpable. There are also the dare-devil exploits of the parachutists as they attempt to create the experience of a stooping eagle descending at literally breakneck speed – and so they go on! The above observations are only intended to give pointers as to what lies within this series. To do full justice to the series requires an understanding and appreciation that can only be gained by purchasing the discs. For those gripped by this outstanding broadcast series, the Blu-ray option simply offers further visual and sonic thrills and involvement which really have to be experienced to comprehend.
Review: The New Reference disc! - The Content: Who doesnt love David Attenborough? The man is a Legend and all the documentary's ive seen with him providing VO have been epic, I love watching the history and the beauty of the world unfold to his Relaxing teachings. The UHD disc: Wow, this is what we have been waiting for, The colours pop, the detail is incredible, it just looks simply fantastic on my 2016 OLED in 4K HDR. The only let down is they decided to go with 24fps instead of say 50-60fps, but thats not a deal breaker as it looks breath taking. This is the disc to show your friends what your set up can do. PROS: - Stunning 4K HDR - David Attenborough - Reference Quality - Beautiful Box Art - Hans Zimmer's Genius Scoring CONS: - Motion Can be a little juddery due to being encoded at 24fps - No Atmos Soundtrack - USA Broadcast Versions which do not include the Diaries at the end of each episode (Only featured on the 1080p blurays) and the Intro From David Attenborough in episode 1 has also been omitted. FINAL VERDICT: If you already own the bluray of PE2 should you buy this? the answer simply is yes, the step up in quality is evident from the outset, every last colour and detail that may have been hidden in the 1080p encode is brought to life marvellously in this 4K HDR transfer, It simply needs to be seen for yourself. Note: This review was conducted using the 2016 LG C6 OLED & Xbox One S

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Truly staggering.. The pinicle of wildlife filming, cinematography and visual quality.
*by R***0 on 23 August 2017*

What can I say that hasn't already been said? Planet Earth 2 is one of the most extraordinary and beautiful wildlife series ever produced. Plant Earth 2 was filmed in native UHD 4K... And boy does this series show it off in all it's glory. Believe me when I say nothing will prepare you for the utterly staggering and beguiling beauty you will see on the screen before you. It really is a sublime in every respect. . Next is David Attenborugh's usual excellent narration which draws you into the magical world you are seeing on screen and at times feel you are actually living it. To aid this is a particularly beautiful and fitting soundtrack... As with all the planet series of wildlife documentaries, it is orchestral music of the highest order that will make you laugh at the comic antics of the wildlife, stare in awe or cower in terror and disbelief at what you are seeing... It really does put many Hollywood soundtracks to shame. I won't bore you with more details as they have been said many times before, but I do emplore anyone in poession of the equipment capable of playing UHD 4K blu-ray to buy this highly regarded series without delay.... It really is a landmark production in every sense.
