    Informative Documentary of life without People
    This was a very watchable documentary and will be useful in schools and colleges, though I do think, like the Secret, it was a little too documentary like. sure to be a winner on the cable channels. i thought an angle was missing on how we should end up with life without people and yet other forms of life exist. the bit about Chernobyl and the neighbouring deserted ghost town was riveting and a real insight; if we originated from monkeys and apes, why was this not explained more/ ape life not mentioned at all until towards the end. are we really interested whether cockroaches will survive? We want the film to give us a better understanding of how we are abusing our planet and development of it. Certainly makes me wonder whether space exploration is in vain. Too American-ized again for me, only brief mentions of London Paris and italy. The visual effects are however excellent and should get further rewards for that at least
