My only negative comment would be was that I would love to see this on an Imax screen to get the full widescreen effect. I saw it on a regular movie screen and while still powerful, something was missing. A long list of credits rolled when it was over, this was an incredible feat of filming and the birds in their travel of thousands of miles are awe-inspiring. This is an extremely slow-paced documentary, however, and not suitable for children. The downside was the shooting of some of these birds when flying over the U.S. having been in the air for thousands of miles, a wrenching few minutes. The commentary was minimal, which was perfect, and I loved the music. The eight year old with me was very bored, nothing much happens for a child's entertainment. She gave it a 5 out of 10 and I gave it an 8.
