Format:Blu-ray
Great idea, but this project was miss lead by the title.
This production starts off in the Grand Canyon then gets into water supply's of the world.
It's a shame they went about it in this manner.
Some 3D shots were shot incorrectly, flat against the river. Helicopter shots don't normally work well in 3D, one did.
I learned nothing about the creation of the Grand Canyon in the production and not enough about anything to do with the Grand Canyon.
Over all this project would be considered a dud.

Format:Blu-ray
was very diasappointed in this film. It was very misleading, thought it was about the grand canyon, instead it was more concerned about the water running through the grand canyon... I was under the impression that it was a film about the history of the grand canyon. not about some photographer who takes his daughter for a ride down the colorado river.. again just very disa ppointed

Beautiful photography; but not enough of it. Too much politics; albeit true but I paid the extra money for Blu ray for the scenery etc. Have been to the Grand Canyon four times and would go again.

don't buy this dvd!!!
This Video says it is Grand Canyon adventure. What it really is, is a left leaning story about our lack of water. Read more

Visually captivating
While there were not alot of "out of the screen" 3D effects the river rafting experience was cool. Both narration and scenery provided the experience of feeling like you were there... Read more

It's More about Water Conservation than Scenery
I was aware of the water conservation theme because of other reviews. Nonetheless, the scenery of the Grand Canyon is well presented from a personal perspective. Read more

Disapointed
I was disapointed with this film. I thought I would see some real 3D images of the Grand Canyon. The River at Risk was okay as a documentary but should not be a 3D film.
