This movie is the proof that the world is becoming a sick and dumb place
A waste of 90 minutes of my life
A lot of fun.
It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny
It's a tremendous exercise I would like to follow. In addition to the documentary feature of rare works deserving the documentary name, the artistic level is at the top. Human happiness, justice, poverty, richness all question the real people and the true words you believe with sincerity. Why are you so happy with what I am happy with, how lucky I am and how unlucky I am constantly asking questions while you are watching and listening to those stories that you are really touched and often get angry. In the documentary, with the help of people from many different regions, sildenames and hundreds of people from poverty, happiness, spousal sexuality, unemployment, war, peace, hunger, thirst, Everyone is telling their own story in their own way, but I think that most of the messages that are meant to be given are the same and for those who can receive those messages as well. In the end, everyone asks a single question, "What is the meaning of my life?"The simplicity of the interviews and the dressing, the originality of the talk, the people, the narrators make you find yourself close to you, and the interviews have nothing to eat in the pictures. Anyone who I believe can understand this work is planning to watch because it is worth it.
I like the way of this movie's (documentary's) trying to be objective as much as possible. Also the director lets you create empathy with many different types of people. When it comes to movies I consider myself as a choosy guy. To be honest I can definitely say that this is something that definitely worths to watch. Soundtracks also fit the movie. Each person in the movie has unique portrait photo. I also noticed that some country names were mentioned in the movie but very few. This way you can get rid off your prejudices and listen that man only as a "human" (only a human nothing else). By putting some landscapes movie lets you to breathe for a while so that you can rest your mind and pay enough attention on the next people's stories. I'm definitely going to watch again.
My favorite film of 2015. Spanning dozens and dozens of countries and languages, Yann Arthus-Bertrand's Human is a mission to explore our humanity. The three-year project interviewed some 2,000 people and got them to tell their own personal, emotional stories about things most significant in their lives—love, war, poverty, happiness—things to which we all can relate. It's a masterpiece. And the entire film has been released online for free.The format is simple. Clean, candid close-up interview shots spaced with gorgeous slow-motion aerials backed by a powerful score. It's beautiful. And it had me eagerly awaiting each new story to be told. I've heard it all before in one form or another. But the format makes it easy for us to listen—really listen—to so many people from so many different backgrounds. These stories here can echo so deeply and with such a strong feeling that we are all connected—if you choose to allow them. With this, the film is unforgettable.This is a film that matters. It has no plot. No drama, no storyline, no action. And no celebrities—save José Mujica, the humble former president of Uruguay. It's simply a grassroots collection of short stories and vignettes united upon a theme. But it's the antidote to so many films that divide us, that reinforce the us-vs.-them dichotomy that enables us to prejudge, to define ourselves against others, and to resort to violence so easily.I want to travel the world and know even more about others now.
So many different aspects of life in these stories so i recommend you watch it and take what you like and leave what you don't. I personally enjoyed the whole documentary but the English subtitles i had were not working as well as i would have liked. Some of the stories were very sad. The scenery in some of the photography was amazing and i am guessing that the use of Drones might be helping with this in a lot of modern footage. I guess we do not know how easy we have it in life until you listen to the other sides of this world that is currently in turmoil. How anyone could only give this a 1/10 is hard to comprehend.??
