Penguins
This is not a sneak preview. This film has already released.
It’s “March of the Penguins” Disney style. See & learn how the Adélie penguins live & survive in Antarctica. In true Disney fashion, this nature documentary singles out one particular penguin who is designated as “Steve” & follows him as he treks across the frozen ice to the nesting grounds where he will find a mate in order to start & raise a family. The film with a sense of humor is beautifully shot & fascinating to watch & learn about these wonderful creatures. The cute little waddlers face many dangers: the killer whale, the elephant seal, the polar skua, & the leopard seal. Since all of these penguins look alike in their matching tuxedos, who’s to say we are always actually following Steve but who cares. It is a marvelous editing job to tell an entertaining story from one penguin’s point of view. During the credits, see footage of the filmmakers with some penguins upstaging the shots.
Alien gives it 3½ “always running late” stars out of 4.
