The Voyage That Shook the World Audience Reviews

Scanialara You won't be disappointed!
Gutsycurene Fanciful, disturbing, and wildly original, it announces the arrival of a fresh, bold voice in American cinema.
Rosie Searle It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
santasa99 The Voyage That Shook The World is a dramatized documentary film commissioned by Creation Ministries International, a Christian Young Earth creationist organization, and produced by Fathom Media, a makeshift "front company" to approach experts like historians featured in the film. One of them, Peter J. Bowler historian of biology, stated that the creationist backing of the film had been concealed when he agreed to take part, he also stated that the editing of his words could give a false impression of his views as well as present a historically distorted portrait of Darwin. All three historians featured in the movie subsequently issued a statement that they had been misrepresented by the film company's selective reconstruction of Darwin's voyage.
Bob Liv You obviously have people reviewing the show with preconceived ideas which they have no intention of changing. With the above noted reviews it goes both ways but I must say I would go so far as to say periphilla possibly didn't even watch the program as he had already made up his mind. It was an interesting documentary, great scenery, worth while seeing. Like all documentaries they have their own spin but I did not find it outlandish by any stretch of the imagination.If you watch this film with an open mind it does get it's point across that
warrendane The Voyage That Shook the World - did indeed do so. This documentary provides information that is not commonly available from the those who celebrate Darwin's conclusions. Video production is first rate. Couple this and the unique insights into the life and scientific conclusions of Darwin and you have a viewing experience that is thought provoking and informative. Whether or not you agree with the conclusions of this documentary, it will provoke probing thinkers to carefully examine your views of Darwin's contribution to science. If you are looking for an affirmation of your own views, this will not satisfy you. If you are looking for challenging information in the continuing debate over Darwinian thinking this film will be more than satisfactory.
bob1-828-854959 Amongst the hype of unrelenting praise for Darwin, this was a refreshingly balanced documentary. Brilliant filming from around the globe and interesting insights from top scientists to expand on the context and the reasoning behind the theory. All the mainstream films last year would unquestioningly promote evolution, yet here there are questions being asked, and the answers are not what the majority would have you believe most of the time. Perhaps this can be the start of some reasoned and balanced debate on the subject in the media.Enjoyable to watch, but makes you think and want to find out more.
