I like John C Reilly as an actor, but...

Yeah, same here, I like him as actor but could not stand his narration, I thought I am watching some cartoon intended for kindergartens, it was quite offensive, or is this targeted really only at audience under 10 years and it's not supposed to be watched by adults?

John C. Reilly was terrible! He's not funny unless you're 5 years old. Too bad, the rest is a beauty.

I completel agree.

Jeremy Irons was fantastic as narrator in The Last Lions. It's a shame they couldn't get him to do this one.

Same here. I wondered who heck was this terrible narrator until I came here to rate the movie and found its John C Reilly.

He was a decent, but not the great. Even some of the lines that given to him to narrate were of the track, though, I understand it is for kids to have fun watching.

Overall a nice documentary very similar to 'To the Arctic' replaced with grizzly bears.

TOTALLY agree. About JCR (whom I usually like as an actor) and the insipid material. Thanks, coleburg83. Now I don't have to post a new message topic.

If it is not in the frame, it does not exist!

..."if you're a five year old!" ...
"It's for 10 and under only"..

Yes. Yes it is. Just accept that guys. That's the target audience and as a result, the writing and choice of narrator reflect that. My boys loved lines like "I'm a mud monster!" & "well, ...half a somersault".. They we're engaged the whole time. Big win for Disney nature.

Disagree. He nailed it perfectly for the target audience. You 30 somethings are not the target demographic. Also kind of weird that in your minds this movie was supposed to cater to you. Its a rated G Disney movie...

I thought he was good fun
