Iain Stewart tells the epic story of how the planet has shaped our history. With
spectacular images, surprising stories and a compelling narrative, the series discovers the central role played in human history by four different planetary forces.
Episode 1: Water
Professor Iain Stewart continues his epic exploration of how the planet has shaped human history. This time he explores our complex relationship with water. Visiting spectacular locations in Iceland, the Middle East and India, Iain shows how control over water has been central to human existence. He takes a precarious flight in a motorised paraglider to experience the cycle of freshwater that we depend on, discovers how villagers in the foothills of the Himalayas have built a living bridge to cope with the monsoon, and visits Egypt to reveal the secret of the pharaohs' success. Throughout history, success has depended on our ability to adapt to and control constantly shifting sources of water.
Episode 2: Deep Earth
Iain Stewart tells the epic story of how the planet has shaped our history. With spectacular images, surprising stories and a compelling narrative, the series discovers the central role played in human history by four different planetary forces. In this first episode, Iain explores the relationship between the deep Earth and the development of human civilisation. He visits an extraordinary crystal cave in Mexico, drops down a hole in the Iranian desert and crawls through seven-thousand-year-old tunnels in Israel. His exploration reveals that throughout history, our ancestors were strangely drawn to fault lines, areas which connect the surface with the deep interior of the planet. These fault lines gave access to important resources, but also brought with them great danger.
Episode 3: Wind
Professor Iain Stewart continues his epic exploration of how the planet has shaped human history. Iain sets sail on one of the fastest racing boats ever built to explore the story of our turbulent relationship with the wind. Travelling to iconic locations including the Sahara desert, the coast of West Africa and the South Pacific, Iain discovers how people have exploited the power of the wind for thousands of years. The wind is a force which at first sight appears chaotic. But the patterns that lie within the atmosphere have shaped the destiny of continents, and lie at the heart of some of the greatest turning points in human history.
Episode 4: Fire
Professor Iain Stewart continues his epic exploration of how the planet has shaped human history. Iain explores man's relationship with fire. He begins by embarking on an extraordinary encounter with this terrifying force of nature - a walk right through the heart of a raging fire. Fire has long been our main source of energy and Iain shows how this meant that the planet played a crucial role in Britain's industrial revolution, whilst holding China's development back. Along the way he dives in a mysterious lake in Oregon, climbs a glacier of salt, crawls through an extraordinary cave in Iran and takes a therapeutic bath in crude oil.
Episode 5: Human Planet
Series in which Professor Iain Stewart looks at how four geological forces have shaped human history. He explores the most recently established force, humans. It's easy to think of the human impact on the planet as a negative one, but as Iain discovers, this isn't always the case. It is clear that humans have unprecedented control over many of the planet's geological cycles; the question is, how will the human race use this power?
当放下对社会的观点和认知表达，老年人的浪漫和情怀成了我们眼中老套的故事。
老爷子还需要再拍一部呀,拿这部电影封山之作多少有损一世英雄.
已经耄耋之年的东木的新作，不好说是老骥伏枥、宝刀未老什么的，而是我鲜少见的：温柔的东木。有着他曾经影片中最熟悉的元素，却放弃了不犀利不深入的悲伤故事，讲了一个平铺直叙，甚至没有什么高潮点，一老人，一少年，和一只鸡跨越美墨边境的故事，像是他的人生自传一样，像是对那个西部牛仔年代，还拿着枪的东木的致敬和怀念，转眼间已是拖着一身老骨头，给年轻一代讲他的所理解的世俗的老头了。他这次的转变，像是我最喜欢的小说家，写起了散文的感觉。
慢慢讲故事的东木老爷子，能看出确实是老了，身子有些驼了，有时候还是能看到坚毅的眼神但是难掩暮年神伤。一老头，一小孩儿，一只鸡，一段公路之旅，故事形式很老套，情结也没有多少跌宕起伏扣人心弦，简单看看不错。
情节偏简单，小男主演技也青涩，老爷子精神矍铄
伊斯特伍德在这部片子里确实老了。不是老而弥坚，也不是英雄迟暮，而是一个固执老头逐渐凋零，走不动路的那种老。
三星半。一出童话，关于成长、老去和自我救赎的童话。老牛仔风采依旧，但不再那么尖锐，而是平静且温和。
90岁的主演，伊斯特伍德破纪录了吗？虽然电影拖沓，银发驯马师、押镖客算是开拓老年生活新方式。
在电影院和零星的几位比男主角小二十多岁的大爷们一起看的这部电影，翻了翻评论，大多是负面的…我特别担心老爷爷爬土坡突然摔了，九十多岁了何苦为难自己，这到底是艺术追求，还是ego强大，我更愿意相信前者…即便有种爱尔兰人里大爷们拍的力不从心的似曾相识，我依然觉得给差评的人们如果自己90岁的年纪依然愿意工作才配给这部片子差评
剧本弱，片中最有男子气概的角色竟然是一只鸡！
“你以为你得到了所有答案，然后随着年龄增长，你发现你什么都没得到。但等你发现这一点的时候已经晚了。”他的电影都像是半自传体，就像他年轻时候演的那些牛仔片，当时他感觉自己很酷，什么都有了，但是他现在发现这些荣耀男子气概这些东西都是虚假的
90多岁了，给颗星。奥斯卡最佳主角，给颗星。奥斯卡最佳导演，给颗星。东木大爷的电影品质，一部不如一部，但是也别忘了他已经老了，看一部少一部。凯文克斯特纳的《黄石》现在怎么看怎么像镖客三部曲的电影重制电视剧。
《廊桥遗梦》后最温柔的伊斯特伍德，没有了野心和热血，只有一个耄耋老者的娓娓道来。结尾那段话借角色回首自己辉煌的一生，眼前又浮现出《黄金三镖客》里那个叼着烟卷的牛仔。东木，请继续拍下去。
三星半。一出童话，关于成长、老去和自我救赎的童话。老牛仔风采依旧，但不再那么尖锐，而是平静且温和。
这部影片无论是从剪辑还是选角都是垃圾，几乎没有看点，叙事碎片，不连贯的观感就像是片儿汤，但毕竟是东木老爷子的电影，虽然已经能看出力不从心的感觉了，不过还是有些台词值得回味。
虽然但是，东木爷爷非要亲自上阵么？走平地都老态龙钟令人担忧，竟然还安排骠悍训马的戏份，还有爱情戏，想不出戏都难。
东木大爷的电影已经不能用正常电影的评判标准去看了
这是一个真善美的儿童片吧？片头的pure American country music 倒是不错啊。
东木大爷的电影已经不能用正常电影的评判标准去看了
画外:91岁的东木老先生不仅为自己准备了一场马戏，还准备了两场吻戏。
