My Picture window on to wonder March 29, 2008 J. Weishahn (Islip, NY USA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
How extraordinary. My HD tv is my new home window. I play beautiful Places and I'm in beautiful places. I, like too many others, are addicted to having a tv on in my home almost all the time. It is in the background almost but it is not. There's always yapping and music and screaming and noise and talking and schtick and an endless barrage of brands and stuff yelling for my attention. And you know what, it gets it. I fight it but it gets me looking and I don't even want to. Not any more. When I put Beautiful Places on I'm transformed. Everyone in the household is quieter and more placid. We lower our voices AND we actually talk to each other more. Of course, we're not competing with the yelling heads. Lets face it. The tv, for most housholds, is in a place thats the center of activity. Especially with the great new large HD sets. We enjoy that space more now. When the sports and the news is over DVD's like Living Landscapes goes on and everything is more peaceful. I actually checked my blood pressure, which is normal normally while watching regular tv then again, one hour after having Living Landscapes on and reading a good book. Believe it or not it went down a few points. The key is you don't have to watch it. It's just there. Try it, you'l
Good Hi-Def scenery/landscape disc March 3, 2008 Bill Shakespeare (UK) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Does what it says on the box. This Blu-ray disc gives you 75 minutes worth of Hi-Def scenery and landscapes, along with some OK but not amazing, yet pleasant piano style music to accompany it. This is not a documentary, it's more of a demo disc to show some nice places in High Definition.
Enjoyment Ruined By Piano Soundtrack January 1, 2008 Dubinvero (Cornelius, NC USA) 17 out of 21 found this review helpful
The DVD sleeve describes this collection as "designed to create sensory-immersive experiences of the worlds most beautiful environments" For me the enjoyment was ruined by the piano sountrack which drowns out the natural outdoor sounds. It's like watching Sunrise Earth with an annoying new age piano soundtrack. There is no way to kill the piano sountrack other than muting all of the sound.
Good scenery November 28, 2007 Tad A. (South Carolina) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
Well filmed and good looking 1080i and not p as others have said but it is pretty good looking never the less. The music is ok as well. I would love to have had the loops be longer. These are not long loops at all so do not plan on throwing this on for ambiance at a get together and not expect for folks to see the same things 3 or 4 times during a get together. It has baited me for some of the longer versions and is a good sampler disc. I would have gladly paid twice as much if the loops were longer.
Stunning video. As good or better than the pic on the cover September 27, 2007 Greg Best (West Des Moines, Iowa, USA) 24 out of 27 found this review helpful
Just got a copy of World's Most Beautiful Places, and it is exactly what the title projects it to be. Absolutely gorgeously filmed, Hi-Def locations and landscapes from all around this beautiful planet, expertly framed and edited, compiled here from their other full length disc sets. I played it, expecting to use it as pretty, moving backgrounds, but was captivated to sit and watch the whole thing in one setting. The music is appropriately soft and elegant, along side the background sounds of streams, wind, ocean waves. This disc is easily on par with my other nature disc, Planet Earth, but without all that talking. It will make a specatular "screen saver" in my front room, ever reminding me of the magnificent contrasts of nature's natural beauty. I will be buying the rest of HD Environments BluRay discs very soon, and look forward to their future releases as well. It's a wonderful production that met AND exceeded my expectations, so that is five stars in my book.
