We must admit that the aerial photography is absolutely wonderful. The documentary contains long lasting, slow moving shots of landscape that give you enough time to soak in the sites. This is really much more satisfying that the quick cuts in current vogue. One could cavil at the locations that were skipped, but then it's impossible to get everything in.
On the other hand, the voice over is nothing short of awful. True, we don't like travelogues much anyway, but this was about as bad as it can get. This is especially jarring in that the photography has actual content. The script is content free.
If you also can't stand the script, you'd best watch with the sound off. Talk to each other and watch the scenery.
