Top Critics' Reviews
Fresh: Good on you, polar bears, and kudos to the cinematic expertise that captures them, especially underwater.
Rotten: MacGillivray, a specialist in gigantic-screen nature movies including The Living Sea, is up to date in his use of 70mm IMAX film, but he's stuck in the past about how to tell a story.
Fresh: Unless you're rich, it may be the closest thing to being there.
Fresh: Imax auteur Greg MacGillivray alternates between intimate wildlife saga and majestic views of the North Pole, offering strong visual compensations for its meandering structure, syrupy tone and excessive sampling of Paul McCartney's back catalog.
Customer Reviews
Not about the Arctic but Global Warming
If you want to depressed about the world and global warming this is the movie for you.
Best IMAX
One of the best IMAX movies I've ever seen! It's the most stunning cinematic movies ive seen in a long time. Stunning shots, narrated by Meryl Streep and the soundtrack by Sir Paul McCartney isn't to bad to list to either :) the people behind this amazing movie are trying to help save the arctic and who live up the one world one ocean. Amazing work on both.
Short and depressing
This movie makes a lot of extreme environmental claims without any substance to back them up.
