I got this blue ray believing that it was all about nature and beautiful sceneries. It was surprisingly sad to discover how cruel the production was, including footage of little baby animals being eating alive for predators. It is in a bad taste, and very very sad.
What's great about it: Nice pictures and cinematography
What's not so great: Shocking predatory scenes. Very sad. I don't want to see it again.
