Arctic Tale does afford us some beautiful landscape cinematography and up-close looks at creatures in the wild...

It's aimed at kids, and it hits them squarely: My 6-year-old and his friend sat stock still, hypnotized.

Make no mistake, Arctic Tale is a stunning film, full of all the astonishing, even breathtaking nature photography we've come to expect from the folks at National Geographic.

A well-intentioned film that isn't a documentary and isn't a very good adventure story.

rotten:
This anthropomorphic Disneyfication -- presumably intended to give youngsters something to relate to -- is made worse by the film's elementary dialogue and Queen Latifah's crass 'n' brash delivery.
