Movie Info
At the end of each Antarctic summer, the emperor penguins of the South Pole journey to their traditional breeding grounds in a fascinating mating ritual that is captured in this documentary by intrepid filmmaker Luc Jacquet. The journey across frozen tundra proves to be the simplest part of the ritual, as after the egg is hatched, the female must delicately transfer it to the male and make her way back to the distant sea to nourish herself and bring back food to her newborn chick.

-
Compelling narration from Freeman and stunning storytelling. Score also did the work for the film. It's a lovely documentary of the lives of penguins.
-
Gorgeous story of the march of the emperor penguins, truly one of the most unique species in the animal kingdom. The film uncomfortably stradles the border of attributing human qualities to their subjects but the footage is breathtaking.
-
March of the Penguins a truly remarkable film. It is enchantingly moving and you must have a stone cold black heart to not enjoy this spectacle. Absolutely incredible, greatly emotional and a sincerely unfortuante true story turned into entertainment by cinematic geniuses.
-
A documentary that has everything for everyone, it's superbly shot, the way it tells a "story" is very well explored with a sweet and bittersweet tone that makes wonders for this type of documentary.
