rating: 5 QuoteAmazing film about amazing creaturesQuote
One of the best nature films I've ever seen. This is a documentary about animals that face some of the most hostile conditions on the planet and how they survive. well done! November 16, 2008

rating: 5 QuoteGreat Edudational movieQuote
Great movie about the life of penguins. far better than I thought. I feel I have a much better understanding of the hardship they endure and the possible problems forthcoming because of climate changes. Hightly recommend to anyone interested in nature. October 30, 2008

Mr. Freeman's narration is the only thing that saves this from 1 star. Poor picture quality, and a minimum of information, with long periods of things happening but with no explaination or details. "Emperor penguins endure 3 or 4 winters before having chicks, and then only one per year..." 'How long do they live?' I asked out loud... silence...

By comparison, Planet Earth has the most eye-popping cinematography I have ever seen in my life, and fascinating things are explained to you. It's 100 times more valuable and enjoyable, put your money where it counts. October 26, 2008

rating: 5 QuoteExcellent movie, terrific graphics on HDQuote
This is one awesome movie. It follows the March of the Penguins to the breeding grounds. It was amazing what the penguins go through. I laughed and cried and cried some more. Great for any child or adult too. The graphics on HD were great too. May 14, 2008

rating: 1 QuoteNot a blu-ray materialQuote
No offence to the Oscar winning documentary. I love the story but it was not shot in HD and they didn't even try to covert it. The picture quality is about the same as the regular DVD upconvert at its best. Huge disappointment! March 3, 2008
