Galapagos (IMAX) 11 reviews Kenneth Branagh, David Pawson
Imax, 2002
IMAX GALAPAGOS
+ A little disappointing + Galapagos: Again worthy of the IMAX name
I DO NOT REGRET PURCHASING THIS DVD. IT IS THE MOST COMPLETE, BEST FILMED & EDITED VIEW OF THE GALAPAGOS ISLANDS. I HAVE BEEN THERE FOR A DIVE TRIP, BUT NEVER EVEN DREAMED THAT AN IN DEPTH LOOK ABOUT THE ISLANDS COULD BE SO REVEALING. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT TO ANYONE LOOKING FOR A REALLY GOOD LOOK ...

The Dream Is Alive (IMAX) 20 reviews James Van Hoften, George Nelson
Imax, 2001
Easily the best Space IMAX movie
+ Great Companion to Dr. Strangelove
I have seen this movie dozens of times, both in Imax theaters and on VHS and now DVD. It never gets old. I envy those that are seeing this for the first time: a couple of tips: watch on the biggest screen available with a good surround system hooked up and volume turned up to 11. Press "Play" and ...

Titanica (Large Format) 10 reviews Leonard Nimoy
Miramax, 1998
It has become a circus
+ excellemt film
The Titanic wreckage has lost the human and scientific meaning it should have and has become just a show. I guess that is the reason that most of reviewers gave low scores to this magnificent documentary. They just want to see the undeniable interesting scenes of the actual ship on the sea bottom. ...

Excellent
As with Africa: Serengeti, this is a must have IMAX Documentary.
Blu-ray transfer is very good.
A nice mix of history, wildlife, terrain and science.

Fires Of Kuwait (IMAX) 19 reviews Rip Torn
Imax, 2001
Raw, Disturbing and Awe-inspiring, not Pretty
+ Fighting destruction + Global Warming
I have always been impressed with the images recorded on IMAX film projects through the years. However, it was always clear to me that the settings (except perhaps "Everest", also a personal favorite) were carefully planned and controlled. This IMAX film is quite different and must be appreciated ...

Everest (Large Format) 150 reviews Liam Neeson, Lhakpa Dorji
Miramax, 1999
Grab this one! The "45 minutes" doesn't consider the many bonus extras!
+ Great adjunct to Krakauer's "Into Thin Air"
Grab this DVD! If you're one of those who sees a run time of "45 minutes" and that tends to keep you moving on, don't, because there are various bonus extras on the DVD so that 'hours' of viewing is a more equitable consideration.
First of all and in addition to the 45 minute IMAX film there is ...

Seasons (Large Format) 3 reviews William Shatner
Sling Shot, 2003
I am biased-I was a snowshoer in the movie...
In my humble opinion this movie plays to the greatest strength of all IMAX films-it is a stunningly visual display of the continual seasonal changes that my home state of MN is known for. Frigid winters, humid summers and wonderful transitional months in between.
I only wish they had included ...

I have two girls, 2 and 3, totally into butterflies. They love this DVD, as does my wife who didn't grow up with all the interest in the natural things that I did. Unbelievable footage, beautifully done, put together in a way that keeps everyones attention, even the 2 year old's. Some of the ...

IMAX Presents: Ocean Oasis - Two Worlds, One Paradise 3 reviews Prague Philharmonic Orchestra

+ Very enjoyable + Beautiful photography - topside and underwater of Baja!
I gave "Ocean Oasis" 5 versus the 4-Stars of the previous reviewer as it's about the fabulous lower Baha Peninsula's sea life (3/4 viewing time) and coastal land life (1/4 viewing time) migratory birds, sea lions, and the surrounding desert mountains with the emphasis on NATURE where the previous ...

Great footage
+ great for kids + An Excellent IMAX Film
My son has loved whales, dolphins, orcas, etc. since he was a toddler. I bought this video for him and it is so beautiful. The narration is fairly simple with interesting facts that are not too scientific. This video continually shows animal footage without interviews, etc. that are common in ...

This is a must for the aviation enthusiast. Great pictures from Blue Angels training and air show performance.
Allthough the Wright were not the first to do a powered flight (it was an other american 2 years earlier).
The video material is of the highest quality and pure fun to enjoy: the bigger ...
