MOVIE REVIEW
ONE LIFE
Running time: 85 minutes. Rated PG (mildly disturbing animal violence). At the Empire, 42nd Street and Eighth Avenue.
Nature films don't come any more spectacular than the BBC's "One Life." Check out the sea lion cub that clings to his mama like a columnist to his bar stool. Behold the stone-cold killing machine the Venus' flytrap, his assassinations caught in super close-up, super slo-mo. Here's a colony of ants cutting down stalks of grass much larger than they and carrying them away in formation, like Birnam Wood come to Dunsinane in "Macbeth."
We're inured to seeing marvels on film, but they're almost always fake. This documentary is an excellent way to introduce your kids to the more mind-boggling wonderments of reality, and perhaps kindle an interest in science in general.
The natural world is the beguiling star of BBC doc "One Life," including this pair of macaque monkeys in Japan.
Portentously narrated by Daniel Craig ("We see so much of us in them, and them in us," he says, quite rightly), the film suffers slightly from awkward transitions between unrelated animals, and it's hardly an original concept. But the segments profiling fascinating creatures dwelling in rain forests, arctic tundras, African plains and the South Pacific are kept brief enough that your child's attention is unlikely to wander. Adults will have plenty to savor as well, chiefly the dazzling photography.
