National Geographic does a documentary with a good dose of cutesy storytelling from the Queen Latifah narration. It starts with a momma polar bear and her two cubs emerging from their den for the first time.

From National Geographic comes the beautiful documentary Arctic Tale, which follows a polar bear and walrus as they raise their babies. You'll only spend ninety minutes watching it, but the filmmakers spent fifteen years creating it, so make sure to appreciate all their hard work.

On the land of the Arctic, animals have to fight the cold and lack of food. They hunt, nest and reproduce.

Global Warming is a real threat. The majority of scientists across the globe agree on this (there is a small dissenting group but nothing compared to those that believe in the theory).

I don't see this as a standard documentary, or a documentary at all. This movie is about the lives of animals in the Arctic.

I say this movie is manipulative only because it seems to promise one thing and deliver another. I rented it because I thought my 4 year old daughter would enjoy what seemed to be the promise of one of those cutesy, kiddie-oriented movies featuring baby animals having fun adventures together.

My wife wanted to rent this and watch it. It really is cute in some places, but there's nothing here that's any better than the Planet Earth episode on polar bears.

This is a cute, touching and great documentary. This 2007 documentary took years in the making and tells two different stories of a Polar Bear and a Walrus.

I wasn't going to comment on this film, but seeing the negative reactions of so many on this site, I couldn't let them have the say.Yes, this is not a true documentary, and it shouldn't have been presented as such.
