Review of Disneynature's Earth

Recently, I had the opportunity to screen Disneynature's debut film, Earth. I was so impressed by the movie that I wrote a review for Relevant. The movie is narrated by James Earl Jones and follows the lives of three animal families as they overcome amazing circumstances. The film is replete with life lessons and redemptive elements that uncover the grandeur of God's creation. In fact, Flourish's Rusty Pritchard has produced an Earth discussion guide in cooperation with Disneynature that is incredible tool that could be used by pastors, small groups and families as they engage this movie.

If you see this movie and especially if you utilized the discussion guide, I would love to know what you thought of both.

Thanks! I'll keep my eye open for this film....

Honestly, I've been pleasantly surprised by some recent films coming from the same studios - in their redemptive nature....

It is possible that Disney is coming back to Walt's intended roots.

any movie narrated by james earl jones instantly builds street cred in my book, but i'm excited that disney isn't afraid to allow a redemptive theme to their productions.
