Earth closes its roughly 30 minute segment with a cute sort of mini March of the Penguins segment, featuring our favorite tuxedo clad creatures waddling and flapping about in all their glory. The Air segment opens with several impressive vistas of various cloud formations, and then moves on to some visceral storm footage that looks like it was shot in Americas heartland. Even more cloud footage follows, but this time its some very cool time lapse photography that shows a huge cloudbank growing over time, almost in fact like a volcanic eruption. After a brief sequence of slow motion birds in flight, one of the highlights no pun intended of this Blu-ray is offered in a truly stupendous longer segment featuring the Aurora Borealis. This cosmic lightshow is a wonder of blues and greens, with tons of shooting stars, and the shots here are simply magical. As any fan of Planet Earth will attest, some of that series strongest sequences were the underwater ones, and Atmospheres matches the longer form series in that regard. The final third or so of this documentary is filled with beautiful and wonderfully clear underwater shots of strange flora and various sea life. Its really amazing to see the unbelievably bright colors that exist beyond our everyday reality, hidden beneath the veil of the oceans. The final moments of this piece move above the water for some lovely shots of island landscapes, with sea lions and other creatures, before finishing off with Niagara Falls. This 90 minute documentary obviously doesnt have the depth or scientific inquiry attitude of Planet Earth and its Discovery Channel siblings, but over the course of its hour and a half, the viewer is treated to some spectacular imagery. This may be ambient television an emerging genre Ill be dealing with in several upcoming reviews of other similar product, but its gorgeously shot and surprisingly involving. Atmospheres looks spectacular in its 1080p/AVC encode, with the same sharpness and astoundingly popping color palette that made Planet Earth such a sensation a few years ago. Everything from the rust oranges of lava to the startling blues and greens of the Aurora Borealis are reproduced with absolutely accuracy and amazing saturation. This documentary is filled to the brim with swirling images, including lots of mist and clouds, and there is not a moment of macroblocking that I noticed throughout the 90 minutes. Fine line detail is superb and depth of field is simply top notch. Some of the close ups are actually alarming, theyre so clear. I dont believe Ive ever seen a beetles texture so clearly before. The good news is, National Geographic has provided the viewer with four options in terms of soundtracks on this release: two DD 1 mixes, one with music combined with faint nature sounds, and one with just the nature sounds, and two similar ones folded down to DD As noted in the review, theres no narration in this piece, which I personally loved. High def enthusiasts are probably not going to be very wowed by any of these choices, but theres nothing to complain about per se with whats here. While the natural sounds are at least semi-immersive, theyre awfully quiet at times. That said, its fun to hear the scamper of two beetles across sand make its way from channel to channel as the poor little bugs donnie darko song mad world to mount a huge dune. Water sounds are clear and no pun intended liquid, with some impressive LFE in the Niagara Falls sequence. While the original music by Mark Edmondson, Richard Morel and Jon Wolfson is enjoyable, it has a prevalence of low end, which tends to drown out all but the most intrusive ambient sounds combined in that mix. Its actually kind of fun to switch between the tracks as you watch this piece, to get little snippets of what they all have to offer. This is in no way a reference quality soundtrack in any of its mixes, but its clear, with excellent fidelity and range if tilted toward the lower frequencies in the music tracks, and for those non-audiophiles in the audience, should suffice just fine. The only real supplement is a text extra detailing some of the more unusual water donnie darko song mad world seen in that segment as well as some not seen. Thats all perfectly fine and well, but as I noted above, I would have loved some background information on some of the other strange species detailed in the documentary. Ambient television is going to be a growing concern, let me be one of the first to tell you. This National Geographic documentary does this burgeoning idiom in style, with lovely imagery and an appealing, if somewhat lackluster, choice of soundtracks to augment the scenery. It may indeed be Planet Earth light, but its extremely enjoyable, nonetheless. The best Blu-ray deals online. Dont miss out on these great deals.
