The most amazing, satisfying big History film! In addition to being a visual triumph, the story blossoms in jawdropping ways.
This is by far one of the better made movies and didn't leave me disappointed at all!
I have enjoyed it so much that this is my third time watching it. Next year I will probable watch it again.
Peter Kelly, you deserve a standing ovation. From an unbiased, stand-alone movie point of view, this film does an incredible job of being exciting from beginning to end
