Great movie
I have watched the series and I wanted to see the movie. It was a great synopsis of the series with some extra gems.

Great Blu-ray disc, fascinating subject
This review is regarding the Blu-ray version of this video. Nice, crisp video rendering (not great, but definitely worth the extra $$$ for the Blu-ray version). Audio is average, nothing spectacular, but then it's a documentary. Disc plays fine in my Samsung BDP-1500. Special features are interesting. Will probably buy more History Channel features on Blu-Ray as they become available.As far as the feature and subject matter - absolutely, utterly amazing.Personal anecdote. When I was around 12 years old, I lived in a neighborhood located next to a large cotton field. One summer a road building crew came out and constructed a ΒΌ mile stretch of concrete road way off in the farthest reaches of the cotton field, for no apparent reason (it was advance work for a delayed urban expansion which did not to take place for another 15 years).That stretch of brand new road, sitting out in the middle of the cotton field, decaying, grass and weeds growing up between the cracks, frogs, rabbits and other critters making it their home, just fascinated me. Sometimes, I would ride out to it on my bike and just sit, listen to the silence and the sounds of Nature as it slowly consumed the concrete, took back what It owned. Walking along the stretch of road, I would imagine I was the last person on Earth. That was the summer I read "Earth Abides" by George R. Stewart, a book that left a huge impression on me.I've been a fan of post-apocalyptic fiction ever since.UPDATE: Problem. On loading, the disc hang my Blu-Ray player about 50% of the time. Suspect defective mastering of the disc boot sector for the first batch of these discs (maybe why it reverted to "unavailable" status shortly after I bought it?). May have to exchange for a new disc. Otherwise, my comments above are unchanged.
