Encounters at the End of the World reviews
Review by on 1 Oct 2008
Like all of Herzog's films, ENCOUNTERS AT THE END OF THE WORD feels heartfelt, honest and driven by the desire to create art rather than to make money. Breathtaking cinematography, an emotive soundtrack (with witty voice-over by Herzog himself) and a fascinating subject combine to create a phillisophical masterpiece about man's place in the universe and the future of the human race.
See it as soon as you can.

A visually stunning film of quite extraordinary and breathtaking film making! Herzog's witty commentary makes the viewer question the motives of the scientists in their quest, and one wonders if the creatures of the Antarctic are in fact the ones examining us human beings!
