David Attenborough: A Life on Our Planet

David Attenborough conta a história da sua vida, e contra o pano de fundo das mudanças que ocorreram na Terra nas últimas décadas, surge com um apelo evidente e claramente compreensível sobre o tema ecológico. O filme serve assim não só como uma recapitulação perfeita da carreira deste famoso realizador de documentários, mas também como uma mensagem importante sobre o estado do ambiente, que, no entanto, apresenta sugestões e visões construtivas em vez de procurar os responsáveis.

A mensagem de vida de Attenborough em breves palavras. Apresentado de forma um pouco simplista, mas graças a isto, talvez finalmente compreensível mesmo para aqueles que têm de pensar sobre isto em primeiro lugar. (12/10/2020)

Is there any other documentary that everyone should watch in the XXI century? A strong statement by a wise gentleman that will sadden you, but which holds the necessary life-giving positivism of the appealing ecologist. Most of the praise is addressed not only at the “contents”, but also at the very execution of the documentary, it’s graceful connection of objective facts with a subjective appeal, the dramaturgical coherence, its intelligibility and the “minor details” like the gorgeous music and the breathtaking images. A great job and a very important message, which may have arrived late but it can also be a beginning. (15/10/2020)

An epitaph of humanity with room for a potentially successful future happy ending that is shrouded in uncertainty and question marks. Attenborough communicates it simply, engagingly and clearly. The idea is evident. An absolutely essential documentary that should not be missed by anyone. (31/10/2020)

David Attenborough puts an exclamation mark on the amazing series A Life on Our Planet. At the age of 94, it is a very personal confession of someone who was lucky enough to see a lot of beautiful things, and at the same time unlucky to have also seen them disappear. And you may wonder, who else but this admirable man should be explaining to humanity how stupid humans are and what can be done about it? If you only have to watch one documentary in your life, let it be this one. (05/10/2020)
