Add a CommentWhile this documentary is sometimes clunky in its execution, it is an overall thing of beauty. I found splendor, even in the destruction of our glaciers. Well worth watching.
Credible.
There is very little footage of glaciers melting, and it's more of a movie about the people and process of filming the glaciers.
Incredible. Even on my small screen. Highly recommend this.
Ah, we humans are so mean to our planet earth.
Beautiful photos, fantastic video, amazing story of James Balog's quest to photo document glacier recession. Articulate and compelling. Highly recommended. A stake in the heart of the climate change deniers.
Fascinating, frightening. Crazy, cool. Stunning visuals, beautiful and clearly a reality check for global warming. The final calving footage is amazing.
Excellent film with unique cinematography and a multi-faceted story centering on climate change effect on glaciers.
GLobal warning is here. This documentary says it all.. A must see to protect our planet. "Calving" like you have never seen before.
This is one of the BEST documentaries that I've ever seen. It has stunning visuals & a message with great impact. I would strongly recommend it!
This documentary features some truly breathtaking photography as it tells the story of a climate change study that provides dramatic visual evidence of the disappearance of the planet's glaciers.
