If you want to watch TV, but don't feel like watching TV, these are the way to go. No thinking, no storyline, just relax and let your imagination go. It's a revolutionary new age type of artistic display. They can be watched repeatedly without boredom, like a music CD.DIGITAL PICTURE QUALITYAll the negative rap I read about regarding picture quality of the CHRONOS blu ray transfer held me back from purchasing. But recently, I took a leap of faith upgrading my old dvd copy, and whala! I was absolutely amazed at the stunning BD picture quality! Full 1080p high def detail. Sure, there are a few jitters and artifacts, but nothing like the bad taste others had elaborated on. Perhaps the reviewers were spoiled with the Baraka standard, which any BD transfer will pale to. But Chronos is definitely acceptable, and considering this IMAX is 3 decades old, this blu ray is a huge improvement and well worth the upgrade from dvd.BARAKAAs far as the content of Baraka, the major problem I have are those bizarre African tribe ritual scenes. Not that there's anything wrong with this, but I'd much rather see this in a documentary, with a narrator describing this cultural meaning. Ie, teach me. OK, I see the point of Baraka is appreciation of art, but without the explanation, these weird clips leave me in a state of mysterious void of confusion. Perhaps Baraka should have a 2nd audio channel or subtitle. Same goes with the shots of the homeless and inner city trash: BORING, and disgusting. Homeless people and trash on 1080p is not art.ARTChronos is Baraka minus the weird tribal rituals. Chronos is 100% sheer art in its original Ron Flicke form. Every scene, second, and breath has power, deep thoughts and emotions attached to it, can be watch numerously, anytime. Chronos blu ray also includes 3 invaluable features not on Baraka. 1) Global location pop up, 2) Annotations pop up of detailed features of each location, and 3) Director's audio commentary.I give Chronos blu ray 5 star, and Baraka blu ray 3 stars. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Chronos Was Directed and Photographed by Ron Fricke, Who is Best Known for the Qatsi Trilogy *by Z***A on Reviewed in the United States on February 27, 2013* I will give a summary of Chronos. It begins with Stonehenge in Southern England, then goes to the Pyramids in Egypt, followed by the Acropolis in Athens, Greece. Next is the Grand Canyon, followed with what appears to be Monument Valley in Utah. Then we see the traffic in New York City at a frantic pace. Fricke uses time lapse photography, slowing down the sun's rays or speeding up cloud formations. He uses various lenses which distort the pictures. We return to Egypt and the pyramids and statues of Pharaohs, then the Sphinx. Next we see statues in the Athens museum and the Parthenon, with time lapse clouds, followed by a statue of the Roman Emperor Constantine in Istanbul. Next is Rome and the arena, followed by Mont San Michel on the north coast of France at high tide, followed by a wide shot of Toledo, Spain. Then we see several cathedrals and what might be the Vatican in Rome. Then on to a wide shot of the City of Light (Paris) with the Eiffel Tower. Next, La Scala opera house in Milano and Grand Central Station with crowds moving at a frantic pace in New York City.P.S. I could have just written that the photography and music were awesome, but this was more fun. The entire program is 45 minutes long. If you catch any mistakes, let me know. I have not actually seen everything in Chronos, but I have visited Greece, Spain, New York and the Grand Canyon and watched a lot of French movies. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars A feast for the eyes *by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on August 5, 2018* This is a movie of visual spectacle, much of it in time lapse, in order to show the March of time, or how some things withstand time. It is a visual feast, if you will, with a relaxing soundtrack (well, with an enjoyable exception). It is my understanding that the filmmaker created many of the systems used to manipulate the cameras during time lapse photography, creating fascinating slow pans and sweeps while the camera takes its slow images. Even moving forward on a mount while filming is smooth and steady, despite the flurry and frenetic activity around the camera. It has been acclaimed by many others far more versed in the art of cinema, but I, for one, enjoy this film despite the lack of dialog, action scenes, or comedy. Definitely, a feast for the eyes. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.in/products/12453658-chronos-imax](https://www.desertcart.in/products/12453658-chronos-imax) --- *Product available on Desertcart India* *Store origin: IN* *Last updated: 2026-04-22*
