<p>If you get a chance, see this movie. It is a magical, beautiful film!</p>
<p>Plus it puts the travails of shepherding our young through the college application process into better perspective. :)</p>
<p>ooh that’s playing at our local theatre…I guess I should go see it. Is it anything like ‘Winged Migration?’</p>
<p>at least you didn’t have to do that part…</p>
<p>I think sitting on an egg might be easier than being pregnant. ;-)</p>
<p>My boys were teasing me about this movie. To them, it sounds utterly boring, but they know I like birds. Yes, I am looking forward to seeing it!</p>
<p>OH MY this movie is amazing. I drove two hours to LA to see it weeks ago, and happily found that it’s now playing everywhere! If you like documentaries about nature, see this movie. If you like penguins, you are awesome, and you should see this movie. If you want to see a great movie in theaters that isn’t melodramatic, see this movie. It’s quite funny at times, and sad at others.</p>
<p>We saw it last night! D2 had her doubts…but, in the end, she was won over! Four yrs ago, D3 wrote a short 3rd grade report on the Emperor Penguin…so this brought everything to life. Amazing how devoted both parents are to their young…and ready to “let go” when the time was right. Sounds all too familiar.</p>
<p>I saw the movie tonight with my mom, we both loved it 
. It would have been cool to see it at IMAX, but I can’t believe you drove two hours to see it, DRab! Then again, I can ;)</p>
<p>I agree with SBmom, it was a magical film. I laughed out loud at some of the amazing moments the filmmakers captured. Absolutely breath-taking film. I heartily recommend it!</p>
<p>I had seen the trailer and I couldn’t wait to see the film. Warning: If you tend to get teary at beautiful or poignant moments, whether graduations or touching TV commercials, I recommend bringing a lot of tissue. I cried almost all the way through! I have a feeling that I will never ever forget the images on the screen. I too heartily recommend it, despite the fact that I could have used more Kleenex! It is an incredibly amazing story/film. Stay for the outtakes at the end!</p>
<p>I’m just waiting for it to get here…</p>
<p>I knew it would strike a chord with devoted parents!</p>

<p>I want to see this so badly but neither of my kids are interested. If worse comes to worse, now that SBmom has recommended it, I’ll go by myself.</p>
<p>No make them go too. I dragged S-14, rolling his eyes and sighing with total exasperation. He loved it.</p>
<p>Ok, hate to be a naysayer here, but based on the terrific reviews and others’ comments here, I suggested it to my daughter, and went yesterday with her and an 18 year old friend. We all liked the movie, but didn’t think it was worthy of the 5 star rating or “absolute must see” acclaim. Daughter commented that it seemed repetitive and boring after awhile… a little too much penguin-walking. I felt it was like a really good National Geographic special… which is what it was… but not so sure that we needed to rush out to see it in the theaters. The part we liked the best was at the very end, when the credits are rolling and you get to see the cameramen who were doing the filming – now THAT was pretty amazing – so I was thinking all along that the movie I would really like to see would be “The Making of …” </p>
<p>It was nice to spend time with a couple of teens seeing a movie that none of us had to be embarrassed about, and for me just having the time with daughter + friend would have been worth it. So I certainly would say that if you are going to see a movie, this is probably one of the better choices among what is currently running. And the Harry Potter preview was awesome, although way too short. </p>
<p>But I still don’t have an answer to the question I started out with: how do you tell a boy penguin from a girl penguin? I was left with a few other penguin questions as well… </p>
<p>Oh well, don’t mind us - we’re from San Francisco. We were probably just disappointed because we expected to see gay penguins:

<p>I decided I wouldn’t drag my two girls to see it (son is out of the question of course, if he goes it will be with a "girl"friend who drags him to it!)…there are a couple of scenes that could make mine accuse me of making them watch tragedies and be marked for life. I get blamed for everything around my house anyway, no need to give them more ammunition.</p>
<p>calmom, you tell a boy penguin from a girl penguin by which ones are waddling back to the sea to eat and which ones are egg sitting when!!</p>
<p>We had girls day out on Saturday. I saw the movie along with my D and my mom. We all loved it. My D has had a long love affair with penguins. She covered her eyes when nature took its course and some penguins died. Since the movie was playing at our local shopping center we went shopping. Seems like everything we bought was for my D. Oh well, when she returns to school in August I will miss shopping/buying things with her. Couldn’t talk my H into seeing the movie though.</p>
<p>The penguin death scenes are incredibly tragic.</p>

<p>I’m glad I saw it, maybe I’ll go again! :)</p>
<p>I saw it tonight…it was awesome. Best movie I’ve seen in a long time. My brother and I LOVE penguins, but it was still amazing to find out all the details about their life cycle, such as their 70-mile trek to the breeding grounds.</p>
<p>I’m tempted to go back to the theater now and see if I can buy the poster from them when its run here is over…</p>
