"A Real Bug's Life" (2024) is a docuseries about what the title implies, bugs. This series is a not too serious view on the lives of bugs in 5 episodes.
The reason why i say: "not too serious", is because of the silly music, and sound effects. For example zooming in on an ant trail and it sounding like a highway with cars or a spider webbing up it's sleeping space and it sounding like it is taping up something with scotch tape. This can be amusing in a childish kind of way, but it is not what I specifically am looking for in nature documentaries.
Casting Awkwafina as a narrator was good in my opinion, she has been getting a lot of big roles so this is a good change of pace. The only thing that bothers me is the way they went with the dialogue, this is definitely not my cup of tea.
The humor and music they use in this series is not particularly amusing to me, hearing rap or them making a joke about a spider dreaming about seeing a fly in all of it's eyes is not the thing i am looking for when i am wanting to learn about certain critters and creatures.
I really enjoyed the close-ups on every creature so we could really enjoy what they look like in high quality footage, this is done with the latest and newest technology of course.
I get that it is called after a beloved Pixar animations movie and that the goal is not to be too serious, but in my opinion this is what makes it less like something i want to watch.
