Arctic Tale documentary could be better

Arctic Tale

Directors: Adam Ravetch/Sarah Robinson

Cast (Voice): Queen Latifah

Cert: G

A documentary that means well and quite often looks good, but one more suited to a slot on TV than as a full-blown theatre release.

The film concerns itself with the plight of a bear and her cubs and a walrus, all struggling to survive in an increasingly threatened Arctic. Worthy subject matter to be sure but here given a treatment that lends nothing original to the environmental argument.

Nice enough but surprisingly uninvolving.

Star Rating: 2/5
