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?
一星半。执着于煽情，配角连功能性都不完整，天赋和努力的缺失是电影的最大败笔。
煽情 尴尬 剧作和拍摄都让人感觉很痛苦 浪费原型了
电影语言没有什么新鲜的，贵在平实接地气。前半部分是点式抓取最有爆发性的场景让艰辛和天赋卓然显现，后半部分（快递员起）在对“要荣誉还是要实利”“超人还是不及常人”议题的展现上和《超越》如出一辙，并且更有层次一些，现实境遇和运动寿命是逃不开的问题，拍广告表演原来的自己和突破弱点更新自己之间发生摩擦（交叉剪辑还可以），不过荷载这些矛盾的是母亲。
发育不健全的儿子+呕心沥血的母亲，前半段几乎就是港版的《阿甘正传》，塑造了一个为奔跑而生的天才-有的跑就尽情跑!非常煽情又励志的催泪大片，在这个时间点上映 ，借点东京残奥会的光，是希望大家能够更多地关注一下残障运动员的困境吧。虽然一刹那的光辉不代表永恒，但是有得跑就尽情跑，有得拍就尽情拍，想必这也是香港电影人的心声吧。苏妈一直被忽略的二儿子，大概就是澳门吧～
从主角到配角，演员们的表现都很好。苏桦伟的前后两个扮演者很棒，可以说整个片子里没有谁的演技拉垮，必须多给一星。
不停前探的尽头，未必是想象中的豁然开朗，可能会是戛然而止，生命亦然。
吴君如的表演有层次，从泼辣的妇人变得沧桑，疮痍，世俗，崩溃。
北影最后一场：于是人生就在此开展画卷，从升起至向下，到达某个深处，工整且诗意。它随风散去，沉默着。
PS：不是很懂那段在洞口旁踢足球，从洞口之下仰望足球从一边飞去另一边，最终不小心落入洞中的镜头
少年和成年苏桦伟演员和吴君如的演技都在线，但剧本还是太过老套了，没有把这个故事真正的力量挖掘出来，可惜了
在时间与自然面前，人显得那么渺小。
北影节第二部。今年威尼斯主竞赛+小评审团奖。没看之前看影评以为会很闷，差点没买。幸亏买了，是我的菜，是特别的电影。1.视听语言非常棒，录入了狗叫、牛哞、蝇飞、水滴、铃铛等等自然界的声音，风景优美，洞里的光和黑暗之间互动，这样的电影证明了电影院永远的意义。结尾处大片云覆盖森林让我想起了曾经在瑞士的风景，完美复刻。巨幕+4K很爽。2.剧情不闷有悬念。两条故事线，一条线是探洞，我一直在期待更深处的洞里有什么，另一条线是牧羊人的死亡，总觉得他没有死，把毛巾放到他脸上的那一幕像谋杀，后来带去远山里放逐，有楢山节考的感觉了。3.其他印象深刻的场景：全村人聚集在一起看电视（很早以前的节目）、和耶稣一起睡觉、用探头灯吓小孩、只有一辆车就在草原上燃起了清晰的尾气。希望能引进更多入围国际电影节的片子啊！
妈呀，前半程别人都在强撑睡意，只有我堵在北京三里屯20分钟并强忍40分钟的尿意。睡是没睡着，看也没看到，刀刀说我几乎啥也没拉下。看电影时有被肯尼迪时期的杂志有意思到，也被探到帐篷里的马儿可爱到，也被老爷爷的年轮脸仔细观摩到，也有被洞洞里的火光微光美到。但绝大多的时间都在走神我马上要写的稿子。所以，搞不懂，没法评，说明我参与了一个实验？我想也不可能是纪录片，用剧情片拍过去纪录片盛事的意义是？（为什么要展示人放🐑吖，他死了为啥吖，看了一堆问号❓人类生命的顺从和探险吗（妈呀好多打高分的，你们一定跟我一样不打及格以上对不起专门在北影节花时间看这个片的自己，但是没必要，我想换两星了于是，这放其他时段出现一定是不择不扣的6分不能往上加的电影
大自然和放牧人最原始的声音，是风，是云，是水滴，是口哨，是呼唤。科学和死亡，人一生可能都无法穷尽的伟大命题。
神奇妈妈与神奇儿子，谁成就谁都可以，儿子克服先天痉挛，在残奥会田径赛上夺冠，妈妈把一个残障儿子培养成世界冠军，这极不容易，影片一面是励志，一面是感人，苏桦伟经历的困难分量不够，似乎全在于天分，而吴君如的表演缺乏深入。
重复“望着你”“set go"频次过多有煽情过度的尴尬。不过，写励志与亲情的同时呈现运动员尤其是残障运动员的生计困境，这一点很难得。08年他拿到退役前最后一块金牌，风光无限，可接下来的生活怎么样呢？他和电影以外的他们，现在过得还好吗？
香港电影怎么了，以前拍底层拍小人物，香港电影是top级别的，这是怎么了？？？这么好的题材，导演甚至不愿意好好塑造人物
就是配音有些过于炫技而不真实了，知道你是杜比影院，但一片飘落的火纸怎么会有那么大的金属般的摩擦碰撞声呢？
残障儿子是母亲不得不背负一生的负资产，儿子残疾别人不会怪儿子，只会怪母亲，所以她控制、强迫，也满心伤痕。电影把这种极度矛盾的心理表达出来了，最后的比赛成为儿子母亲终于互相理解的化解，整体挺感人的。
格调悠扬，走神难免，好想知道洞里的场面是怎么拍出来的！
