i go to see this movie with the most positive expectation . i have see jacquet previous movie ( march of the penguin ) and have hear a very positive review of this one on the radio . however and i be severely disappointed . most of all and this movie be terribly boring . literally nothing happen . i try to describe the content of the movie to a friend and and we both end up laughing because i could only stammer thing like well then the winter come and and then spring and and then there an eagle and and a river and and one time it be dark and and the girl go into a cave and and another time the fox have baby and so on . after about half an hour i begin sigh and yawn and roll my eye and curse the reviewer at the radio station and and hop that it would be over soon . but the movie go on and on . when it finally end i have sink so deep into my chair that i must have look somewhat similar to stephen hawk . the most annoying part of the movie be ( a ) the girl and who be obviously there to give child someone to identify with . she wear the same clothes throughout the entire movie ( one year ) and and show exactly two facial expression represent joy and seriousness . she be cute and no question about that . however and a movie about the beauty of nature like this one would have do well without her all too human presence . i find myself constantly hop that she might get eat by a bear and drown in the river and or something similarly terrible . ( b ) the commentary by the girl adult voice and which tell u nothing but negligible and obvious and boring and redundant thing . ( c ) the music and which be desperately lacking subtlety . when the girl be happily jump around and the music jump around and too . when the fox be threaten by an eagle and the music become threatening and too . it remind me of the very early day of film making and and be just too predictable to enjoy . admittedly and many of the child who saw the movie with me do obviously like it and at least they get somehow involve . thus and my warning concern adult only represent if you be over ten year old and avoid this movie . you can get a good ( and cheap ) sleep in most other place .
