3/06: Morgan Freeman narrates a heartwarming story about the survival of penguins in March of the Penguins.

It's not a surprise the Oscar winner for Best Documentary outgrossed all of the five Best Picture nominees. I mean, this is what people want to see. However, it can be slow at times, and I'm let down by several CGI insertions of fake penguins for the underwater scenes. Why do that? Just stick with reality, folks.

All in all, I would've gladly picked March of the Penguins over Crash for Best Picture.
