Customer Rating:
Summary: Disappointed
Comment: I was very disappointed in this video. I bought it to use with a group of Cub Scouts (3rd grade) who are earning their Weather Belt Loop. I love weather, but this video is boring! The exciting things that kids want to watch -- tornadoes, hurricanes, floods, etc. -- are just barely touched on in short video clips. The video skims the surface of weather and doesn't linger on anything long enough to really entertain OR inform you. The recurring motif of the rotating rooster weather vane gets really annoying after a while.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Very good video, for kids
Comment: This was a very good video, but I don't watch TV and was therefore unaware that its format is suited for young people: kids and young adults. I enjoyed watching it once, but will probably put it up for sale at Half.com. I recommend it to anyone who has children interested in meteorology.
Customer Rating:
Summary: This will blow you away!
Comment: Weather takes you on a whirlwind tour of Earth's turbulent atmosphere and reveals the forces that make the day fair and foul.From hurricane to heat wave,weather is the most closely watched wild card in nature- yet it still baffles us.

Editorial Reviews:

Based on the groundbreaking series of books, Eyewitness: Weather is a whirlwind tour of our planet's many moods. State-of the art graphics and creative pacing weave viewers of all ages through a fun, smart exploration of wind, rain, hail, tornadoes, and hurricanes. From old Buster Keaton films to news footage to computer models, the images amuse and delight, while providing counterpoint to Martin Sheen's fact-filled narration. (The time-lapse movie of thunderstorms is worth the price of admission.) Eyewitness: Weather makes for great family viewing, inspiring questions and dialogue for long afterward, and bears repeat viewing well. As a really cool bonus, there's a "making of" trailer following the main attraction. We're all affected by the weather, we all talk about it, now it can be fun! --Rob Lightner
