So much average

Simply Perfect

There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

Brian Cox opens the series by asking "Why are we here? Where do we come from?" This is a wide-ranging show of 4 hour-long episodes examining big fundamental concepts. The first "Destiny" examines time, entropy, and the eventual heat death of the universe. The second "Stardust" examines the creation and composition of material of the universe. The third "Falling" examines gravity and black holes. The fourth "Messengers" examines light and sound. The show can float from one subject to another. I like his explanation of entropy. The other concepts are fairly basic. The show can be jumpy. In general, the big concepts are compelling and understandable. The questions are so big that the answers can be uncontained.

This brilliant documentary made me understand the concept of universe further more from the previous documentaries i have already about the universe. Brian Cox, as most people already said is involved more in this subject, but i quite frankly like it, because he explains concepts, principles and other factors which occurs in the universe with simple details and in ways which are totally understandable easily if you tried to listen well. I totally loved this series. The visuals are so good too. If you have downloaded in the best quality, you would definitely feel amazed in the first episode itself, when Brian cox explains things with grains of sand, in which the sand grains are so detailed and lovely to watch too. I definitely recommend this series to everyone who wants to learn about the universe and it's concepts.

I must have seen probably more or less a hundreds of documentaries, about nature , environment, and some enough for Space, Universe, Cosmos.In this Documentary, simply what you watch , what you can get its indescribable. And it is represented for this really wonderful person Professor Brian Cox. You simply can see with every word and every expression of his face, how much he loves and he is fascinated with everything he describes. One more amazing thing is that he tries and succeeds to describe so many things with simple stuff traveling all around earth, to show a simulation and to bring as close it could be, to things billions miles away. So even if you don't have any background in astronomy e.t.c you can surely watch and learn so so , but so many things. Although i would suggest some little knowledge from before so you can understand even better.Well i think , as many as i would write would never be enough.This is really the best of the many many documentaries i have seen so far ( Although you can't say such thing ). Hope he will continue the same... thank you sir Brian Cox.

This series sounded really promising but the most beautiful shots are usually with this guy running around or showing close ups of his face.I have no idea who thought it is a good idea but for a documentary series like this the universe and the beauty of it should be the focus of the movie and not some dude with a "hip" hairstyle.Him constantly running around in front of the camera, adds nothing to the whole documentary and is just distracting.My wife and me couldn't stand watching more than half of the first episode. What a pity. This is not how good documentary movies are made.To make everything look nice the editors used vignetting which truly makes everything look kind of good.
