A heartwarming film!, Feb 3 2012

I took my kids to see this back in August 2011 at the Great Lakes Science Center in Cleveland, Ohio.
It was their 1st IMAX experience (they are 4 and 2 years old). They were so patient and were riveted!
I love how it was all about FAMILY. Animals need love and care just as much as humans.
I have been searching online for the video since then. I have it preordered and I can't wait to rewatch it over and over!

I saw the 3D version of this film today at the IMAX Theater at the Smithsonian. Gorgeous. Heart-warming. Magnificent.
I want to see it again soon on Blue Ray!

Loved it!, April 18 2012

I am on a wildlife documentary kick right now, and this movie did not disappoint.
(1) The images were absolutely stunning. I truly believe HD was invented to showcase the natural world in all it's glory, and this disc did not disappoint. The sound effects coupled with the visuals were absolutely stunning.
(2) Baby elephants and orangutans are absolutely adorable. Watching then play was captivating. I found myself also being moved with the interactions between the younger and older animals.
(3) Dr. Birute Galdikas and Dame Daphne Sheldrick are modern day saints.
(4) Morgan Freeman said it best, if mankind lets these animals go extinct, then a part of our collective souls goes away with them. We cannot allow this to happen.
(5) I liked this movie so much, I watched it twice in a span of 5hrs (the movie is only 40 minutes long) so this is easily achievable.
