WillSushyMedia This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.
Teddie Blake The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
Ariella Broughton It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.
Fleur Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.
conquestdzzztt It was a beautifully filmed documentary with awe inspiring scenery!! I thoroughly enjoyed it except......... for Dawa and her two beautiful kittens.........Why wasn't she helped after she was injured? Disney could have afforded a veterinarian to help her and her kittens. Snow leopard's are an endangered species so why would the film crew, Disney corporate, and China not help this poor family out???? She and her kittens could have recuperated in an enclosure that could have been flown in and set up right there in the valley and released back into the wild afterwards. Does anyone know what happened to her kittens. I can't find anything, anywhere about them after Dawa, their mother died of her injuries, starvation, and exposure! What a horrifying and cruel (with no humans intervening that filmed all this and watched her and her kittens suffer) way to die!! Yes the movie was beautiful but if humans refuse to intervene especially with helping an endangered species survive then we are the plague that will murder our planet unless we start intervening!!
mroger-72924 Don't get me wrong, the imagery was amazing. When Jim from The Office started talking on this beautifully crafted masterpiece, it took away EVERYTHING from the documentary. Next time how about spend a little more money on a narrator and not someone in love with the front desk secretary. I will never spend $7 to rent something from Disneynature again and I watched the majority of this piece with my television muted.
katarina2204 Born In China is a beautifully filmed documentary with an abundance of magnificent scenes and heartwarming moments. However, there is one thing I - nor any other animal lover - can possibly forgive this movie.SPOILERS BELOW! Namely, I am talking about the fate of the snow leopard mom Dawa and her two beautiful cubs. As some of you may know, snow leopards are an endangered species. They are actually so rare that this movie features the first ever footage of snow leopard cubs! Keeping in mind these facts, I find it impossible to believe that the filmmakers - who supposedly want to raise awareness about endangered species and help pandas and snow leopards - didn't help the snow leopard mom in any way. She was hurt and she died of hunger, leaving her cubs alone. Not only did they watch her die, talking about the circle of life and how her soul is immortal, they also apparently left her cubs there. I expected the filmmakers to insert a note at the end of the movie how they actually saved these babies but instead, they opted for funny videos of themselves and the other animals. There is nothing online that suggests that they even tried to help the cubs, there is no mention of them whatsoever in the interviews. This movie didn't make me feel happy; on the contrary, I was left in tears, hopelessly trying to discover what happened to the cubs.
capone666 Born in ChinaGirls born in China know that they will grow up in a safe, white American suburb.Unfortunately, as this documentary verifies, the same doesn't apply to every female species in China.A single-mother snow leopard struggles to find nourishment for her young in China's merciless mountain region. Meanwhile in the jungle, the birth of a female golden snub-nosed monkey forces a neglected male to venture out on his own. Also leaving the nest is a giant panda whose mother is having a hard time letting her go.Narrated by John Krasinski, Disney's latest nature documentary once again does an excellent job of capturing rare fauna in their native environments. Unfortunately, like the others in the eco-series, this maternal endeavour is also heavily edited to fit a desired narrative while the animals are given human characteristics.By making the pandas human, however, just makes eating ginger beef that much more difficult.
