Default Movie Review: March of the Penguins

I'm surprised no one has made a post about this yet. Regardless, this movie is damn near the cutest movie I have ever seen. I would suggest taking a date to go see it. They will probably want to get all snuggly. I've always been quite fond of penguins and watching this movie was quite educational. They are absolutely fascinating animals. There exists a love story here, but it is more in the form of parent/child which is extremely strong. Although it is essentially an hour and a half of ice, snow and penguins, it is still entertaining and at times humorous.

I lost to my date playing RPS or we would have seen this instead of Me and You and Everyone We Know. The guys at the theater also said this was going to show for a while and they were getting rid of Me... after this week.

Anyway, I'm glad to hear this review, I still want to see the movie pretty bad.

Should I let my girlfriend watch this movie with her ex-BF? Keep in mind I trust her.

Did they have sex together? That makes a big difference.

This movie was very cute, but also very sad.

Usually you don't leave a "cute" movie unhappy, but this one I did.

Agreed, there certainly were some sad parts. However, the ending wasn't all that sad and I thought it left on a good note. One other thing, I thought the "sad parts" were handled well. There were a lot of instances where death was implied but not really shown.

Me and you was ok... was a nice change of pace from the usual summer movie with 59565 explosions but in places it just seems like it treid to hard to be the "quirky indy film of the summer"....

worth renting but don't bother leaving your house to see it.. have netflix bring it to you.
