What also really makes this movie is hearing Morgan Freeman narrate this video and I love the music they play throughout.

It is really an amazing video that shows the journey of the Emperor Penguins.

The video at times is happy, funny, sad, and incredible- these little guys are really tough in such cold extremes!! It's a wonder they still exist!

On TV it shows 2 hours, but without all the commercials the video runs 1 hour 20 minutes.

Great documentary.

Can't wait for the Bob Saget spoof using discarded footage from the movie to be titled 'Farce of the Penguins', will be released straight to video in January.

uh... funny you mention that

I just found it on DailyMotion. I laughed so hard watching this video! Maybe because I saw "March of the Penguins" first . Then seeing this spoof just totally cracked me up!

On Dailymotion and is called "Farce of the Penguins" as told by Samuel L Jackson

You also hear other well known voices in this movie.... Helen (one of the penguins) is Whoopi Goldberg. Bob Saget is Carl (one of the main penguin characters in this video)

Too many to list.. but you see the credits at the end of the movie.

** WARNING : NOT suitable for young ones due to the language heard at times in the videos**
