Chasing Ice (2012)
Disturbingly beautiful footage of the effect of climate change on several of the world's largest glacier fields.
James Balog and Jeff Orlowski team up in what turned out to be a fantastic effort in documenting vast amounts of photographic evidence of the effects of recent global temperature increases on glaciers in Alaska, Canada, and Greenland.
The footage is magnificent and the film is scored very well. James Balog's personal challenges in undertaking the project are also documented, and present an interesting angle to this style of documentary.
By presenting the footage in as non-partisan manner as possible, Chasing Ice avoids tarnishing its message with politics.
Rocky IV (1985)
A slow start, but by far the best of the Rocky's
This is truly a great one. After a slow start with the robot and the domestic family junk, the movie picks up fast after Drago kills Apollo, now Rocky's good friend. The training portion of the movie is excellent with an incredible soundtrack. The final fight is the pinnacle of the Rocky series after which Rocky finished with heartfelt speech that does more to defuse the cold war than all our diplomats ever have.
