What the Critics are Saying About BEARS:
"...views are never less than eye-fillingly grand."
--David Cote, Time Out New York
"Kids . . . will love this beautifully-shot IMAX nature
documentary showing bears and their cubs frolicking and struggling to survive
in Alaska, Montana and northern Canada."
-Lou Lemenick, New York Post
"This spectacularly filmed, hour-long documentary is educational
but also visually entertaining."
-Lisa Wilton, The Calgary Sun
"Filled with fun facts and aboriginal beliefs about the bear
spirits, Bears is a great way to introduce children to these magnificent animals."
-Lisa Wilton, The Calgary Sun
"Black bear cubs gambol in the grass, making honking noises
that sound hilariously like geese. Polar bears do 'strange tangos on the tundra.'
And when the salmon spawn, grizzlies congregate at a river, jostling for position
like unruly relatives at a family picnic."
-Laurel Graeber, The New York Times
Selecting high-quality films for diverse and changing audiences
is a challenge for all theaters. Wolves has been a successful addition to
numerous theaters' program mixes. Here is what a few theater colleagues and
reviewers have to say about Wolves:
"Wolves has enjoyed tremendous success so far at Fernbank.
We have sold out most of our weekend shows and have received great feedback
from both our visitors and sponsors alike."
Marissa Vivona, The
Fernbank Museum of Natural Hystory
" Wolves suited the British Columbia market
perfectly. The film attracted a whole new kindergarten-to-grade-six audience
for us. They loved it!"
Patricia Brandino, National
Geographic Theater
" Audiences, especially schools, love the ability to learn
more about these fascinating canines. Our sponsorship partners in launching
and supporting the film have been impressed with the numbers they have reached
- and with the quality of the film experience. It's been a hooooowwwling success
at The Science Place!"
Liz Bleiberg, The Science Place
"For the opening of Wolves we developed a
Heritage Day celebration to cross-promote the Museum's Native American exhibition
hall since there is a great spiritual connection between the two. Needless
to say, with all of the festivities, the opening weekend of Wolves
was a great success!"
Deborah Ford, Houston Museum
of National Science
"The film Wolves was well received by all
the children at the 5th La Geode Film Festival. Based on this success, we
have programmed it to run during the peak hours of family attendance."
Nelly Duval, La Geode
"After 70 years, the howl of Canis Lupus is once again heard in America's
West…There have been TV documentaries about them of course, but none
takes us deep inside the world of the wolf like this amazing (and gorgeous)
giant screen film."
Jane Sumner, The Dallas Morning
News
"Omnimax is perfect for showing the magnificence of Wolves…but
Wolves is successful on a much deeper level. The thrilling,
pounding drive of the Native American music, Robbie Robertson's deep crackling,
near-hypnotic narration, the impossible openness of the land, the magnificence
of the animals themselves..."
Arthur Salm, Union Tribune, San Diego
"Much of Wolves is scored with American Indian
music and it is haunting and powerful. Huge images may be the name of the
IMAX game, but, for this film, music is a chief asset."
Bruce Westbrook, The Houston Chronicle
"Wolves is a very educational film and was
well shot. The music, along with the giant dome gives you a great effect on
what a wolf's life is like… Wolves is a great film everyone should see.
So go see Wolves and see the Wolves behind the
old folk tales."
Anthony Kaneaster, 13- years old, The San Diego
Union
"Wolves was considered to be one of the outstanding documentaries of
the year!"
Ellen M. Harrington, The Academy of Motion Picture
Arts and Sciences
"A film as big and ambitious as the screen it's projected
on."
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
"...the movie offers the most astonishing camerawork seen
on any screen in years.
...the racing scenes offer something truly unique, a genuine breakthrough…TRULY
STUNNING."
- Chicago Tribune
"...SuperSpeedway is INCREDIBLE…an eye-bugging visual spectacular.
…a cinematic teleporter to the world of those who cheat death every time they
go to the office."
- Chicago Sun Times
"...DELIGHTFUL… will interest car buffs and non-fans alike….breathtaking photography."
-The Toronto Star ****
"Super Speedway is an important development in IMAX films. Director
Stephen Low has gone beyond the traditional IMAX film to tell a human story
- that of the Andretti Father and Son team while still taking the viewer along
on a once-in-a-lifetime IMAX style ride."
- Barbara Bantivoglio of Liberty Science Center OMNI THEATER
"Good story with excellent use of the large format medium. It
has good science content and there's something in it for everybody, not just
die-hard race fans … a family film that everybody can enjoy."
- Steve Bishop of the Chicago Museum of Science and Industry's OMNIMAX
