Have you ever wanted to watch penguins dancing romantically to REO Speedwagon? If so, this is for you.
This was (mostly) a fun little documentary from Disneynature. At 76 minutes in length, it moved pretty fast. It often made me smile or laugh, and featured really good use of music. I'll forever think of an awkward penguin called Steve when I hear Whitesnake in future.
The whole documentary is centered around our mate Steve. He always seemed to be late to wherever he was going - including the birth of his kids. In some ways, I could relate to Steve a bit too much.
Whether it be 100 mile round trips for food, or annoying neighbours stealing precious rocks - Penguins shows the life of a penguin is really damn hard. I couldn't help but feel bigger picture stuff going on - with life itself feeling like a tumultuous ice flow filled with problematic leopard seals at every turn. No, just me?
Ed Helms was annoying as narrator at times - it took a little adjusting to once he began voicing the penguins themselves. And if I had kids? I probably wouldn't show them this until a certain age. There was some scary, anxiety-inducing events in parts. Such is life.
