Ancient Apocalypse: Season 1 | Rotten Tomatoes (1) David Wengrow The Nation Ancient Apocalypse sets a trap for people like me. In it, archaeologists are portrayed not just as suppressors of the truth but also as inveterate snobs and dogmatists... Dec 22, 2022 Full Review Ancient Apocalypse: Season 1 | Rotten Tomatoes (2) James Delingpole The Spectator There were times when I felt as if, at every turn, Hanco*ck’s fascinating ideas were being undermined by a series producer determined to make him look a bit slippery and unreliable.

Samantha C All the negative reviews calling him a pseudoscientist etc. are just abusive. He is a journalist, who's job is to explore ideas and possibilities. He doesn't claim to be correct - he claims he has a notion worth exploring, and I have to commend him for that.It seems anytime someone dare have a radical idea and we courageous enough to explore it, they are met with hate and shame and insults. So many ideas in history were outrageous and ridiculed (lightbulb anyone) until they weren't!I thought he was very mindful not to claim anything as fact (except those things which have been given common consensus by archaeologists and science) and i think his passion is sincere and some of his logic really sound. Especially his theories around the connection to the land and astronomy. I can absolutely jump onboard that people had a deeper and different type of intelligence than what we had today, completely plausible.It just seems like he's upset a lot of people by daring to have a different view, and being willing to not only research it, but be public in his quest. I'll respect anyone who is willing to explore an idea, risk being wrong, risk being shamed, all in search of the truth. How often he is character assassinated in the media, to me, is what tells me he might actually be onto something. Rated 4/5 Stars • Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/29/24 Full Review Trevor L Overall, I found a lot of the information being presented interesting and worth looking more into with many of the subjects. But I have to say, whoever is the sound engineer/designer on the show, really has over-produced it and has put me off watching further. I have a hard time focusing on the shows content because of the overly dramatic sound effects. This is not 'Mandalorian' or 'The Bourne Ultimatum'. It is a documentary. Rated 3/5 Stars • Rated 3 out of 5 stars 12/14/23 Full Review Rick S Pseudoarchaeology at it's peak... for now, unfortunately.If you want to know how cherry picking data points works, how leaving out conflicting data points works, how making it look like evidence works while you actually don't present evidence at all, then watch this.It should be flagged as entertainment. That's all it is. Rated 0.5/5 Stars • Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/21/24 Full Review Leticia B It has a very interesting subject but it also has SO MUCH misinformation that it becomes basically unwatchable. Rated 1.5/5 Stars • Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 06/27/23 Full Review Pillow B Makes plausible sense. Entertaining and informative. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/19/23 Full Review AquariumGeek915 An eye opening and informative documentary. We should all be willing to hear evidence on what could have happened to our ancestors. This is a must watch! Rated 4/5 Stars • Rated 4 out of 5 stars 06/10/23 Full Review Read all reviews
