Amazon.com:
March of the Penguins instantly qualifies as a wildlife classic, taking its place among other extraordinary films like Microcosmos and Winged Migration. French filmmaker Luc Jacquet and his devoted crew endured a full year of extreme conditions in Antarctica to capture the life cycle of Emperor penguins on film, and their diligence is evident in every striking frame of this 80-minute documentary. Narrated in soothing tones by Morgan Freeman, the film focuses on a colony of hundreds of Emperors as they return, in a single-file march of 70 miles or more, to their frozen breeding ground, far inland from the oceans where they thrive. At times dramatic, suspenseful, mischievous and just plain funny, the film conveys the intensity of the penguins' breeding cycle, and their treacherous task of protecting eggs and hatchlings in temperatures as low as 128 degrees below zero. There is some brief mating-ritual violence and sad moments of loss, but March of the Penguins remains family-friendly throughout, and kids especially will enjoy the Antarctic blue-ice vistas and the playful, waddling appeal of the penguins, who can be slapstick clumsy or magnificently graceful, depending on the circumstances. A marvel of wildlife cinematography, this unique film offers a front-row seat to these amazing creatures, balancing just enough scientific information with the entertaining visuals. --Jeff Shannon

Rating: - Stunning
This movie was incredible and is a must see for anyone who cares about nature at all.

The lengths that the filmakers went through to capture this footage is astounding and paid off well. It is relatively low-key and the narration adds to this sense. Nothing outrageous or over the top like you sometimes hear on various nature shows. Freeman just relays the story perfectly an the visuals of the movie carry so much.

Stunning landscapes and to see the penguins and how they ... Read More

Rating: - Good film
This film has even inspired a political controversy, with Right Wing advocates claiming that the annual `monogamy' the male and female engage in supports their view that the nuclear family unit is ordained by God, and that Emperor penguins are proof of `Intelligent Design', even though they are clearly marvelous products of adaptive development. Gay rights activists have countered the Right's claims by noting that female penguins often steal the chicks of other females if theirs dies, and that lower ... Read More
