"Jordan Morgan of "Tomorrow's News" defined the couple "the most unlikely expectations of collaborations" but goes on by stating ""When Bjork met David Attenborough" is a fascinating, albeit slightly confusing, documentary that joins the translucent dots between humans, nature and music and provides for an extremely informative learning lesson, [...] as well as creating something new to hear, Björk also sets out to create a visual image for what people are hearing, adding another dimension to what you hear".
