I can't wait to see this:

MARCH OF THE PENGUINS
Documentary
(times & theaters)

Rated G
Directed by: Luc Jacquet
Starring: Morgan Freeman

Narrator Morgan Freeman sums up director Luc Jacquet's dazzling nature documentary as a tale of tenderness, separation and reunion. It's a love at first sight story, ultimately about the survival of the emperor penguins, bringing the viewer up close and personal to the penguins and their harsh Antarctic surroundings. Jacquet pushes March of the Penguins above the realm of pretty landscapes and animal footage with a compelling life story that grabs one's attention. What you learn immediately from is that life is difficult, and yet, true for man or beast, the one thing always worth fighting for. -- Steve Ramos
Citybeat Grade: B+
