As a whole it delivers the message in the end but the way the film was put together makes it very hard to follow, confusing, frustrating.  I definitely wouldn't recommend this movie, I was disappointed by it.

Visually,this was absolutely *stunning*, almost hypnotic! The massive bird nerd in me is thrilled by beauty and effort in the appearance and movements of the characters. The plot was a bit predictable, but still certainly worth watching! Be advised though, it may be a bit too intense for little ones.

i bought this for my three year old great niece.  She loved it as I did watching it with her.  It is definitely a 'period' piece, but that is part of its charm.  It still has enduring appeal, despite its 'age'.

This bears many re-watchings.  The movie is so well done and the actors are so real in their portrayals,a athaat each watching seems like the first.  There is a minimum of violence so it is a movie for all ages.

Great story, superb acting, beautiful cinematography. It's annoying that shows of this quality, are only stumbled upon by accident. They appear unheralded. This show deserves viewers, I'm enjoying it immensely.

This turned out to be a very nice watch. I do say that my wife and I enjoy movies like this, one about a Nepalese city that is usually invisible and appears rarely. When the city appears, its prince can enter the visible world until the month ends. This story happens to a girl from an American academic family in Nepal for a teaching engagement. Pernell Roberts of Bonanza appears in this. I never cared for Roberts but he plays a villain, sort of, he's a bit greedy and grubby when confronted with a miracle such as a city that can appear and disappear.

This movie was a delight to find. I hope Mr Roberts had a good time making this movie. The girl and her little brother were good. The parents played roles of self-interested parents well; so well that I failed to find them sympathetic. Another role, a (Nepalese) professor, was good.

Very well written piece of a period of immense historical significance and those that lived it.  Accurate from equipment,  tactics and historical content this is film that provides a glimpse of reality and holds one attention and interest.  Well worth watching,  and owning.

it is very clear to watch. I use it at yellowstone park and 17 miles to observe the wild animal. The only weakness is a little heavy.

The characters and story line are very alive and draw the audience into the story, it's not a dull monotonous plot line. There's always a few angles and perspectives going on at once to keep the viewer busy. The mature content does get out of hand at times.

Friends and I saw this film because of the reputations of two of the leading ladies and enjoyed it more than we expected.  There are multiple sub-plots and a look at a culture that we don't see much of in our world.  We felt that we needed to see this film a few more times to get it all.  It is enjoyable to view more than once.  The performances by the cast are, as we would expect, stellar, and the overall film is truly enjoyable.

These films chapters hit the major high points of the history of man.  The major happenings and the leader is each event is displayed.
It is quite entertaining and factual.

Fun to watch to see what man has gone through and the leaders and inventors that help to get to where we are today.

I happened upon watching this on PBS recently and was deeply impressed.  First of all the story resonates through time and the application to this version is striking.  Almost a cross between the Police video for Syncronisity 2 and the dramatics from the movie Highlander.  The acting is  sensational and very impressionable.  Enjoy!

Good movie but intense.  It can help one realize that if signs are in front of you to pay attention that could be obvious and not ignore them.
