Elephants: Spy in the Herd Audience Reviews

Jeanskynebu the audience applauded
Smartorhypo Highly Overrated But Still Good
Nessieldwi Very interesting film. Was caught on the premise when seeing the trailer but unsure as to what the outcome would be for the showing. As it turns out, it was a very good film.
Lucia Ayala It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.
MartinHafer This is a nature documentary narrated by David Attenborough. For that reason alone, it deserves a 10, as his film (such as "Earth") are simply the best made, most interesting and most innovative you can find...period. Here in "Elephants: Spy in the Herd", filmmakers use a 'dung-cam' to surreptitiously record the actions of herds of elephants for a year. What is a dung-cam? They are cameras hidden in what appear to be innocuous piles of elephant droppings! The cameras varied and were stationary, mobile as well as floating!! The rather near- sighted elephants GENERALLY didn't notice them and they got lots of footage that you'd have a devil of a time getting otherwise! So be prepared to see elephants fighting (I actually witnessed this myself in South Africa a year ago!), lots and lots of adorable babies as well as some surprising behaviors, such as elephants appearing to grieve, showing curiosity as well as playing! A wonderful and extremely well made nature film that nature-lovers really must see.By the way, if you like this type of film, also try to see BBC's "Penguins: Spy in the Huddle" in which fake penguins with hidden cameras were used to infiltrate the flocks! Amazing!!
