I had heard amazing things about March of the Penguins before I went. Consequently, I think I was disappointed by what was otherwise a very good movie. Thom and I were talking about how some of the film, including what should have been a dramatic, breathtaking opening, looked too grainy. After see the end credits, where they showed uber-parka glad camera people carrying gear through freezing Antarctica, I think think we should cut them some slack.
