Very enjoyable to watch, good color and great presentation. Also enjoyed watching in 3D.
Didn't find anything to dislike in this movie. Most of the places depicted in the movie were places I had gone to myself with the family when I was young. The ones that I hadn't gone to were well explored and presented. It was only a little short as I was enjoying seeing all those places again, which brought back many fond memories. I didn't have a video camera when I visited most of those places. Now I have some videos to remember those places..

Great video
I love documentaries like this. I'll probably never be able to go to most of these places in person, but this video is awe inspiring.

Nice 3d look at our national parks.
Scenes of the national parks in 3d are excellent. Would have preferred seeing more parks and less footage of climbers and bike riding stunts.

Only 45 Minutes Long
Only 45 minutes in length. Not worth the price in my opinion.

Stunning Movie
I was surprised to find out that this offered Atmos in the settings. Beautiful video and soundtrack.

National Parks Adventure: A professional film.
National Parks Adventure is an impressive production covering our National Parks. My son has been a National Park Search and Rescue Ranger at Yosemite National Park and in this film.

Some nice scenery but disappointing overall
Cinematography, graphics and sound are impeccable as always, but this film was disappointing to me. The operative word in the title is "Adventure." There's a bit of national parks, and a whole lot of three people climbing, biking, rafting, hooting and hollering, fist pumping and taking photos of each other doing goofy poses on top of rock formations. The underlying message seems to be: the national parks only have value if you conduct some REI-sponsored activities in them.I'm sure the film's three on-camera 'guides' are nice people who obviously appreciate the great outdoors, but I, for one, didn't need them. I would rather see more of the parks themselves, and learn something about their history, biology, geology, etc. I don't need to see a place through a character, which is what these IMAX films so often seem to think I need. There was an occasional contemplative or heartfelt moment which I appreciated.The score's notable use of pop songs also did not speak to me. The show seems to be aimed squarely at groups of school kids rotating through the IMAX theatre. I'm 55. If you're planning on showing it to kids, they will probably enjoy it more than I did.The 4K HDR version looks great. The 3D version has some nice shots, but many of the visuals are expansive wide shots so you won't get much sense of 3D from those. But even many of the closer shots did not seem to be 3D at all. They were completely flat, and I don't think they were shot 3D.The Special Features are also a bit of a disappointment. They are mostly bite-sized pieces that replay a lot of the footage you've already seen in the movie, with an occasional insight into how it was shot. Most of them start with the same 15 second title sequence, so you're forced to watch the same opening again and again. There is also no Play All feature, so you keep having to go back to the Main Menu in order to move on to the next very short featurette. This is lame.Sorry, guys. Our national parks deserve better.
