Review of Winged Migration (2001) by Steve K — 31 Aug 2007

In terms of cinematography this film is stunning. Some of the shots they captured were simply out of this world. However, in terms of a documentary I felt it was lacking. When it came to informing us about the species of bird we were seeing and the details about their migration a French man would say something pointlessly and slightly pretensious every 20 minutes or so.

What could have been a really amazing nature documentary really missed the mark in my opinion. Amazing photograpghy and loads of new age music will only get you so far...
