This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.
Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.
A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.
this is the best documentary I have seen recently. It is related to every one of us. A message is very effective and depiction is much convincing. Don't waste another second in reading reviews and start watching it right now. It is worth the time. I really appreciate the hard work of the team behind this amazing shoot.
everyone should watch this film as it shows how critically extinct some of the animals were while some species were really extinct, many animals came ahead of us but we kill them like they were just nothing, a very sad and beautiful documentary, hope everyone could watch this and share this so that all of us could be educated by how critically endangered and important animal species were"Better to light a candle than to curse the darkness" - John F. Kennedy
With nearly half of our wildlife decimated since the 1940s, it's not hard to imagine that the natural world is in some serious trouble. The expansion of the modernized world and the overpopulation of humans has caused nature and its species' to face extinction. "Racing Extinction" is a shred of hope. It sheds light on the important issues facing nature and the thousands of animals facing extinction due to climate change, poaching, pollution, ocean acidification, hunting and fishing, and the destruction of natural habitats. This documentary interviews many knowledgeable conservationists and scientists who have solutions and hope on this subject. With magnificent footage of nature and animals and devastating footage of the destruction of nature, this documentary does a brilliant job blending the beauty and the loss of the natural world with the solutions to preserving it.
This is a nice movie, pleasant for the eyes, but that is about it. It is not a documentary. Yes, the extinction is an issue, no doubt about it. Mentality of humans is a problem.The movie presents plenty of fairly invalid points, so I will just pick one that is stunningly stupid. The bad fishermen who are living their houses in huts, hunting with bare hand, using wooden boats, consuming nearly no resources at all should be overshadowed by good guys, who are regularly flying around the planet in planes, buying the most advanced technology, spending tons of dollars each year, using all the resources there is? I do not really thing so!Do you want to save the planet? Good! Stop buying stuff, use less, that is the way! And please, do think!
