Robert W. Butler Kansas City Star 07/14/2006
A grab bag of material -- a bit of history, a dash of science, some wildlife-film elements... and, of course, a load of fantastic large-format photography that captures the continent's icy wonders with spectacular clarity. Go to Full Review

04/16/2011 good doc about the south pole. See more 02/22/2009 The penguins segment was the best and the underground filming of the pond caverns. Makes you want to visit...lol See more 11/17/2007 Pretty good IMAX picture. Doesn't stand up next to Planet Earth, but not bad just the same. Interesting to hear climate change talked about in a 1991 picture and compare the rhetoric to a picture released today. See more 06/14/2007 The one I saw was "Emperors of Antarctica", maybe the US title is different? This was interesting, but I would have preferred more detail about the penguins, and less about how hard it was to film the penguins. (QuickFlix, 30/05/2007) See more 04/01/2007 Stunning pictures from another place we know so little about. I have already been to the North Pole, I am determined to make it to the South as well. See more 12/09/2006 Quite a poor movie to say the least..... Certainly not worth the time to watch it. See more Read all reviews
