Amazing, beautiful looking film

I was lucky enough to see this film at the Waterfront Film Festival in Saugatuck, Michigan. This was a wonderful documentary directed by Luc Jacquet which follows penguins traveling to their breeding ground in Antarctica.

Narrated by Morgan Freeman, it's beautiful and I loved the way it didn't just point a camera at penguins and say how they live, this one actually told a story. If it wasn't narrated, you would still be able to follow the basic idea of the film. The countless penguins travel a very long distance to breed. It's very interesting to watch these penguins, they go through so many ordeals just to have kids.

It's in the style of Winged Migration, the scenery is a character. If you get the chance to see this film I recommend it, it's wonderful to look at and it's impossible not to love the penguins.

Astounding

March of the Penguins is a truly remarkable film, that wasn't helped by its misleading advertising. I admit I wasn't expecting what I saw, in fact it was better than what I was expecting. I loved the documentary style it was shot in. I loved the beautiful photography and the breathtaking sceneries. I loved the poignant and haunting music. I loved the cleverly written narration and thought that Morgan Freeman narrated perfectly. Asdides from the visuals were the penguins themselves, they were so cute and immediately lovable, then again I may biased as I love penguins. The film is quite leisurely in pace, but I liked that, it gave an elegiac and thoughtful feel to the film. In conclusion, March of the Penguins really is an astounding documentary-like film. 10/10 Bethany Cox

epic nature parenthood

Morgan Freeman narrates this Luc Jacquet documentary about the emperor penguins. The monogamous couples walk to their traditional breeding grounds where they laid one egg each. The couple carefully balance the egg on one's feet to incubate it while the other goes back to the ocean to feed. They would transfer the egg as each partner goes back. It's a long dark winter as the sea freezes and the distance walked gets further and further. The mass of penguins huddle against the cold while their partners hunt for fish avoiding deadly seals. It's an epic of parenthood in nature. The story is touching although it may be too humanized. It doesn't as much eat or be eaten as most other nature film. For some reason, Freeman's narrations threw me off. It's never not Freeman and it's harder to get lost in the penguins. Overall, this is a good nature film.
