Arctic Tale


Arctic Tale, by the creators of March of the Penguins and An Inconvenient Truth, focuses on three main characters a Polar Bear, a Walrus, and the damaging effects of global warming.

Arctic Tale does easily convey its message about global warming because the awkward narration (Queen Latifah), score, and personification of the animals tells us how we should feel. It really undermines the cinematography, which is the strength of this documentary.

Watch it to feel bad about wasting electricity or driving your gas guzzling SUV because this excess consumption will eventually lead to the extinction of these Arctic creatures.
