- Quotes
Luke: If you can keep your head, when all around loses theirs, and blames it on you. If you can trust yourself when all other men doubt you, but you make allowance for their doubting too. "My dad taught me this": If you can fill every unforgiving minuet, with 60 seconds full distance run. Yours is the earth, and everything in it. And which is more, you'll be a man, my son.

Featured review
truth "stings" - I disagree that: "its really rare we have these kinds of movies that make us aware we are not the only ones existing on this planet" - as I am fortunate enough to have many movies in my collection that do just as you suggest. I think that the "cuteness" factor appeals to a younger audience - but unfortunately presents and facilitates an unfortunate irresponsible urban perspective - that is by familiarizing a polar bear cubs to humans often leads to the same bear being shot later as a sub-adult - in real life. I could go on with other examples of mistakes in the plot too - but I think that is what griz-259-175100 was trying to accomplish. The plot could have been handled better and improved by having it reviewed first by northern and aboriginal people - which "God" also created (as you say) and similarly deserve the same respect and attention as this bear cub. Inuit have learned how to be compassionate since they have had to help each other over thousands of years or they would have perished in that landscape. I consider excluding aboriginal input into the making and plot of this movie a colonial relic that is no longer acceptable.
