Skunkyrate Gripping story with well-crafted characters
Tedfoldol everything you have heard about this movie is true.
Intcatinfo A Masterpiece!
Sharkflei Your blood may run cold, but you now find yourself pinioned to the story.
tankace North America is an other one of the documentary about the corners of the world in which wild life does its thing and the inhabitants try to survive. To be honest I have seen more or less a dozen of this type of documentaries and see one more I was thinking " The faction of that is out and the documentary number 17 is unnecessary and what has more to give?". It was fine ,but didn't give me something I didn't already know.For starter I have been watching wild life series since I was nine years old ,so I can say that I know well these series. North America just show you the creatures of the wild west (wow what a twist) ,again the California coast and the Midwest. Although the series isn't badly made or be offending to the audience the fact it doesn't try to be original just gives me a dejavou filling yet again. That is tiring and frankly why eat again pizza when I have eaten every combination imagine?If you like it ,fine I don't blame you it is an entertaining documentary and the images showed are good looking. My problem is it doesn't give something new and that's an issue with the majority of the documentaries nowadays ,it seem, they have been out of content and they just give you the same things again about WW2, Dinosaurs, Vietnam, Irak , Rome, WW1, Inventions, China and so on.In the end as said by Immortal Joe himself :" Mediocre!" ,no originally is a sign a laziness on the creatures part and I want to see new content for ones ,I crave it since 2013. Three whole years, even if you aren't an expert ,you can get that the documentary genre is stagnating.
Max Lewis For a series called North America, it seemed too focused to the US market and called some places that were Canadian, American, and some Canadian inhabitants, American. I'd like to see a more continental and balanced viewpoint in some terminology in the narration. OK, that's my only gripe really here.Photography and production were first rate and I do recommend this. Shows of this calibre deserves a good reception because we need to see more stuff like this and take better pride of our great continent. The BBC sets the benchmark for this type of documentary, but this is a very worthy contender and I will definitely be watching all of this series. The cinematography is stunning and it's a definite must see.
ibn-1 The photography is fantastic, however the narration is exceedingly poor. A curious melange; assuming your audience is a naive eight year old whose never experienced nature, coupled to a especially bold level of American Jingoism. I've never heard such chauvinistic patriotism in a Nature Documentary.It comes across as Americana delirium mated to beautiful visuals, like a pet propaganda project. The Music is often misplaced and overwrought as well... when they shut up and just show the wonderful visuals it's a striking meditation on Nature, but those moments are few. It's a shame that visual genius was coupled to written lunacy.
John T. Ryan WITH SO MANY nature films stockpiled, how few pay any attention to what is essentially our "back yard"(here in the United States). It is indeed a pleasure to see and hear about the incredible interactions between the Flora, Fauna and the ever-changing Weather of our Continent.IT WOULD APPEAR that generally we as a viewing public seem to prefer such nature documentaries to be set in more exotic venues; or so it would seem that way to the studios, producers and networks. One only need look at the list of previous popular films and series. From those Safari Movies of Martin & Osa Johnson through the present day PBS staples,such as NATURE, and you'll see that programs centering on our continent are numbered among a small minority.WE STUMBLED UPON this gem tonight, quite by accident. The filming, editing and varying subject matters all have come together in making it a delight to the senses. The two installments that we watched on the DISCOVERY CHANNEL proved to be as entertaining as they were informative. (Even "Educational", if you will).HERE'S HOPING that NORTH America will have a long life and that it will be prolific and spawn many like series in the future.
