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?
目前为止，化解过几次地球被撞击的威胁了呢？
大表姐咋胖成这样了…真相其实凄惨得多，他们甚至没有聪明到可以像你们描述得那样邪恶。近期最好的政治讽刺喜剧大作，台词的密度和信息量都让人满意，意识形态高度对立社会的的绝佳写照。
笑得hin开心！出发点comet是气候变化，现在看来也可以是疫情及其它任何专业群体与大众的矛盾关系，可以看作是后疫情时代作者电影的intro了，就是不仅仅纪录当下，而从humanity层面的对这两年经历的讨论吧。这个选角做得很妙，还是群戏，真好，甚至感觉小李子（大李子？）得奥斯卡得早了，大魔王都认不出来了。就是的确还有点浮，毕竟是更像一次应激反应。和冯提尔的《忧郁症》可以对比阅读，前疫情时代的地球毁灭是个体心灵世界的崩塌，后疫情时代难道只能大社会+泛家庭的讨论么？终究还是要回到个体心灵世界的。
大牌云集，而且免费，不看实在说不过去。的确很有SNL大电影的感觉，各自对现实的讽刺，但是更讽刺的是除了彗星撞地球这个高概念的设定之外所有的段子都是新冠以来真实存在的。最搞笑的是最后的彩蛋，女总统被外星恐龙吃掉的一幕。
不如美国现实荒诞吧。前半部分还不错，后面乏了。
恰当好处的幽默配合恰到好处的特效，爆米花指数爆表！Adam Mckay火力全开，小李子再次贡献狮吼神功，远胜一众末日电影远矣。再社交媒体和大数据的时代，这部电影比黑客帝国4直白的宣教，更能警醒世人，Don't look down, look up!
很久没有看到能够blow my fucking mind商业大片了，众星云集的同时感觉大家在一起玩的也挺开心的，仿佛抛开了所有束缚并呈现出如此纯粹且粗暴的政治寓言，大数据时代下的阶级语言所引发的荒唐与嘲讽，存在还是毁灭也再一次被推向人类终极话题的风口浪尖。将不同阶级与政治意识形态下的交流思维表现出极端裸露下的病态发展，所摩擦出的各种火花令人捧腹同时也细思极恐，人类的命运暴露在台面上供他们博弈，彗星的灭绝威胁变成了最大利益化的共同体。抬头即上帝在赋予预言为现实，不要抬头是脚踏实地的虚无主义，一切试图将「存在」抹除的精致肉体都将被撕烂与吞噬，而将爱保留在灵魂深处的胴体才是最永恒的感知体，而所有被毁灭的众生也从来不曾被遗忘。
又一部“COVID-Inspired”的电影，远胜过去年的“Death to 2020”，对人类的思考、合作能力的极大嘲讽，也对美国政治、撕裂的美国的社会极尽嘲讽之能事，人们大概可以从这样一部荒诞、闹剧但又饱含批判意识的作品里get a glimpse into a possible future：两年的大流行提供了太多素材，在气候问题面前，全球合作因各国无法弥合的分歧举步维艰......很难否认该片不是给人类的inevitable doom做了一个虽然简化但不乏预言性的描绘。梗太多（尤其是川普梗），几乎从头笑到尾，但看到片中最后那一幅幅绝望、动乱、宗教仪式、爱、美丽的地球生灵、森林、海洋.......画面的快速更迭，不禁泪流。
明示的政治表达，社会问题的嘲讽显得有些无聊。如此豪华的卡司阵容也就剩下了噱头而已，大家都是照本宣科式的表演。本年度网飞年底重头戏大失所望。断崖式剪辑方式算是眼前一亮。有彩蛋。
3、最喜欢国防部长卖零食，还很认真的算了算折合人民币。
几乎把美国社会最突出的矛盾都讽刺了一遍，政治作秀、有色人种、娱乐至死、意识形态撕裂、资本控制、社交网络......但电影喜剧元素并没有很多，只是觉得聒噪。等甜茶出场等了88分钟。可能是大表姐银幕形象最拉跨的一次。【Netflix】
太写实了，这就是我们的现实世界。政治如同弱智儿童的游戏，资本，媒体，公众，样样都无比拉垮。面对新冠肆虐的两年，看看我们的社会干了多少蠢事儿。生活要继续，毁灭了，只能说明不配继续。
表面是讽刺喜剧，内核是现实悲剧。经历了全球疫情灾难，我们应该何去何从，政客、资本家、媒体人、学者粉墨登场、各展嘴脸，人们仍然不会思考，而是继续一场末日狂欢。还是那句话，好的喜剧内核是悲剧。
「那美好的仗我已经打完了，应行的路我已经行尽了，当守的道我守住了。从此以后，有公义的冠冕为你留存。」（提后4:7-8）
[3.5/5.0] Ron Perlman 角色用手槍打彗星是不是在致敬巴頓將軍ＸＤ
3.5吧，虽然政坛什么的翻来覆去都是那些梗，但放在世界末日设定上还挺飞，太适合加进冬季节日的奶头乐片单了。李子依然是有熊追他既视感。
极具讽刺意味的黑色幽默，贴合近2年的世界实事动向。当年鲁迅说国人麻木不仁，百年后，连美国人也意识到了麻木不仁带来的危害和本身的可笑。
PPT电影，30页讲完正好。一切的灾难片，最后必然走向宗教价值，120分前后的祈祷和萨满跳神很触动人心，南无观世音菩萨。Ariana Grande唱得怎么这么好，比专辑里唱的都好。
真厉害，目瞪口呆，害怕，好笑。哈哈哈哈哈。我们当然互相同情，彼此提醒。在这个把我们注意力干稀巴烂，集体思考水平低下的年代。但下这样的断言只能是个电影，没有人有资格去给这个正在发生的时空做评判。否则就是另外一个喜剧电影的主题了。也有可能是这个灾难太tm大，除了珍惜身边美好的一切，确实也没好办法。但是喜剧是喜剧，痛快点呈现某个片段就行了。有可能呢，聪明的人早就做好准备，就好像躺平的人说我们曾经真的努力过。这个喜剧也太悲伤了吧，就好像话都让他说完了，剩下一个傻仔在独自喊妈妈。就真的和真的一样，没法辩驳。但也蛮开心，末日来临都一样，还不如真诚点。每个小群体行为都有道理，但无法达成更大范围的共识，除非某类人毁灭，这才是最可怕的事情
它并不像先前大多影评人所说的那样“不堪”，而是有着令人舒服的节奏、极具创意的剪辑与幽默诙谐的风格。全片笑点不断，根本停不下来，一点都不尬！各类真实的社会现象，抨击的非常深刻，而且每一位的演技都十分自然。真的算是2021年末的惊喜之作！
