Thru his idiosyncratic lens, Herzog captures the universal. I have never seen a more true depiction of Antarctica than is presented here. Not only that, it goes beyond the nuts and bolts of everyday life, to the nuts and dolts who inhabit the seventh continent. The scientific philosophical dreams shared by the participants in Herzog's un-fevered non-nightmare glimpse into the human era on our earthen sphere are bona fide gems. This is Antarctica for those bewitched by marching penguins, beguiled by historic legends, bewildered by the below ice desert wilderness, bothered by the lack of a clear view of our own home, bejesus! After his last two outstanding films (not to mention his bizarro career filmography), I didn't think I would be taken by surprise yet again by the master, yet surprised I remain. This is the work of a genius. 49.7 out of 5. |

I'm excited to see it, Herzog seems to be hitting a new stride. |
