Jacques Cousteau's Voyage to the Edge of the World
C**S
An older documentary but still relevant today, before global warming took away some of what you'll see here.
Though this documentary is about 20 yr. old, the explorations done by this pioneer in undersea research is still relevant & worth watching. Though I have seen many similar programs, this one is special, in that it gives us a view of how things were, & are no longer (due to global warming). It's like traveling right along with them on their adventures, & seeing amazing animals up close & personal. It is a nice program.

Beautiful, wonderful story
It's an old documentary but still has lots of interesting information about the Antarctic that I did not know before. It kept my attention the whole way through, brought back old memories, had me sitting on the edge of my seat during the ice storm, and even made me cry when one of the crew lost his life. Beautiful, wonderful story. I'm so glad I found it on Amazon.

This amazing voyage into the northern arctic was beautifully filmed
I'm a fan of the Cousteaus and their work. This amazing voyage into the northern arctic was beautifully filmed, with running commentary by Jacques Cousteau. It documents the death of his son mid-voyage, which is confusing, since Wikipedia 'reports' he died in Spain. But the documentary is lovely. I only faulted some of the older sound track, and the over-dramatization of some of the obvious dangers of ocean travel in snow and ice.

Thanks again JACQUES.
I have seen mostly every Cousteau documentary that was ever produced,being an active sport diver for about 44 years they were my mainstay when I wasn't wet, to view from a professional group of undersea explorers who loved that world, a place that very few divers would ever get to view. This DVD has been remastered in HD for the Blu-ray format,a top notch video and audio is the end result, taken in ANTARCTICA, one of most inhospitable places on our earth..It was originally produced in 1976 -- 93 min. long . Definitely worth the buck's , 18$ or so,ENJOY!

Jacques Coustea in the Antarctic
During my childhood, our family always watched Jacques Cousteau specials when they were shown on television. While the footage is now dated, the adventure is not. Cousteau and crew were poineers, exploring the undersea world, and exploring where others had not yet been. Besides, who doesn't like a soothing, French accent? Sadly, though, a crew member and friend was lost on this adventure to the Antarctic, joining others whose lives were lost in the process of visiting that harsh clime.

Überholt
Natürlich ein Meilenstein der Filmgeschichte. Allerdings aus heutiger Sicht ziemlich überholt. Das Format des Films ist 4:3, Bildqualität eher mittelmässig. Moderne Filme wie "BBC Planet Erde" bietet deutlich spektakulärere Bilder und auch mehr Information. Die TV-Serie von Cousteau hat mir deutlich besser gefallen, da es relativ kurze Episoden waren mit einem klaren thematischen Fokus. Hier jedoch gondeln Cousteau & Co stundenlang durchs Eismeer, was schnell langweilig wird. Das "Flair" mit den leicht rotbemützten Abenteurern an Bord der Calypso kommt auch nicht so gut rüber wie in der Serie, da mehr Wert auf Naturaufnahmen gelegt wurde. Und die sind, wie gesagt, nicht mehr up to date. Daher leider keine Kaufempfehlung.
