Take the amazing cinematography first seen in the tremendous Planet Earth television series, write an overwrought, cloying script which anthropomorphizes the heck out of a large segment of the animal kingdom, create fictional stories that pair up innocent victims with amoral hunters, shake James Earl Jones out of a narcoleptic fit to read the script and then set it all to the most banal, soul-sucking musical score imagainable and what do you have? Well, here is where the difference of opinion comes. I say you have a steaming pile of nature-porn crap; Disney calls it "Earth, the movie."
Coming to a theater near you April 22. That's Earth Day. Do yourself - and the planet - a favor. Skip the film.
