AshUnow This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

Clarissa Mora The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.

Sabah Hensley This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama

Benas Mcloughlin Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.

spookysully Yet another perfectly written, directed and narrated nature show that was probably filled with enough research for the average homeowner. Maybe a little too perfectly written, directed and narrated nature show that was probably filled with enough research. Ya know, for the average homeowner? Yea, that one, the second one. How the hell could they possibly know what any given animal in any perfectly choreographed shot is thinking at any given moment? Unless, they don't know what comforting, story direction will playfully slip from a creatures human mouth and its just silly crap to listen to while they show you expensive,beautifully shot videos of Polar Bears. I also thought it was hilarious that they considered it a "startling discovery" that polar bears eat berries. What? It was informative though on these particular bears in that, I've only a passing interest in Polar Bears and had know other way of finding out about them.I'll admit that you can get lost in the beautiful scenes or cinematography as industry people or hipsters like to call it but only, if you're stoned enough. The playful then deadly story that's always offered up was just too much and I turned the volume off after the "startling discovery" and realized, as you'll see, far too late in the film that I should have done this at the outset.I gave it a 7 just for the cinamablah blah blah. Get some tunes and its a great watch, don't and be charmed by some writer's direction, following his director and producer's whimsy as they lull you into a family fun adventure with a calming, and apparently all knowing voice actor paving every step of the way!

Wendell Auman This is my first ever review and I was compelled to do it on this one because my then 3 year old son has watched this documentary for more than probably 50 times! I want to tell the things what makes this piece so beautiful to watch and hear.The breathtaking cinematography looks like they were taken with modern action cameras used in sports, characterized by the wide angle lens distortion and even sharpness. A multi-copter may have been used for the aerial shots. Some scenes call for better video stabilization. Colors are vivid. We have to put up with a short scientist footage shot in low video quality from a polar bear's point-of-view revealing a modern discovery. The polar bears are so close to the camera that one can almost feel their warm breath. The sound effects are crisp and clear, adding to the intimate closeness of the shots. This is HD at its best. View this in the living room HD screen. It's a crime to watch it any smaller screens!The narration is filled with humor and affection, yet the situation you see will always remain serious and sad. Look forward to a polar bear activity where the narrator claims to have never been shot before.The best thing about this documentary is the endearing music. My son would hum along with what sounds like a well-composed soundtrack, worthy of being used in human epic movies. I wonder if it was specially made for this documentary or just stock music. If they were special compositions, then a soundtrack album of this documentary would sell.
