Title: I know Winged Migration and this is not Winged Migration
Review: This is a National Geographic Special, not a stunning piece of art. I bought it on the "Winged Migration" recommendation and was disappointed. It is nowhere near the same caliber cinematography, score, or narration. It was fascinating in the same way that any National Geographic special is fascinating, but my 3 and 5 year-olds (who love Winged Migration and Baraka, ok, ok, I let them watch Koyannisquatsi (sp?) too) were not interested, and honestly, I was also disinterested by the end. Another irritation - too much anthropomorphism - penguin chicks are not "children" or "unborn children". The thing I loved about Winged Migration is that it let you do your own anthropomorphising...if only they would have stopped the narration and let the penguins speak for themselves....
