Irritating tale
By

7 Feb 2008
This is the story of the polar bears and walruses who precariously inhabit an Arctic endangered by global warming and thus ecological disaster. It took 15 years to make.
Unfortunately what then happened was that its superb and patient photography was undermined by a soupy score and a commentary, spoken by Queen Latifah, which is as balefully irritating as you could possibly imagine.
The result is a film anybody but a small child would be well advised to watch with ear-muffs. A pity.
