Lost Worlds: Life in the Balance

Originally presented in IMAX theaters, LOST WORLDS looks at untouched aspects

of nature in parts of the world where humans rarely tread.

From plants, to animals, to geology,

this artfully photographed documentary presents facets of the biological world that you are not likely to see anywhere else.

What happened here? What keeps all civilizations alive? To find out, join narrator Harrison Ford on a scientific adventure from the arctic to the equator. Tunnel into a metropolis of micro-organisms beneath New York, swim through the underwater forests of the Pacific, and climb to the top of the mysterious mountains in Venezuela that inspired Arthur Conan Doyle's novel The Lost World. Discover the wonders of biological diversity—and its importance to all of us.

This starts with the Mayans and their lost civilization. Narrator Harrison Ford examines the resources connected to New York City and follows the water up the pipe back to the nature reserves which filters and protects the city's water. Nature's bio-diversity cleans and preserves the water. A team of biologists head off to the mountains of Venezuela which is the inspiration for Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's The Lost World. The central theme of this documentary is the connection between the city and nature.

This is a 40 minute documentary probably meant for the IMAX theaters in museums. It has the sweeping vistas and fly-bys that those movies really love. It's connecting the artificial city world with the natural world. It suggests that the city needs nature to survive and wonders about the lost ancient civilizations. It's great to connect the two worlds which often feels disconnected. It's a worthwhile premise which this short does very well.

'Lost Worlds: Life in the Balance', narrated by Harrison Ford, is a nice IMAX presentation. It is not the best I have ever seen, it feels a little incoherent, but with beautiful nature and some interesting facts I certainly enjoyed watching this documentary.

I think this is one perfect science movie and everyone must watch It.There is so many interesting things that We must know.We also should think about our planet after watch It.Maybe It will sound like cliché but I want to say that We must keep our planet clean and respect It.I think the nature is at war with us because We killing It.Think about.And only We are guilty for that war.Cars,factories,ozone hole,steam effect - We made them,not the nature.The nature giving us everything about our life and how We repay?Not a bit!I think that movie mirror everything that I said.Watch It and I'm sure You'll like It like me.In It has very things that We must think.Enjoy!
