Encounters at the End of the World

The inexplicably appreciated and prolific Werner Herzog machine keeps on churning out poorly narrated documentaries. This time he tries to cash in on the recent South Pole craze (see "March of the Penguins," "Happy Feet," "Surf's Up," "The Thing," etc.). His style -- this is not my kind of style. Except for a few wry observations about his interviewees, I don't find his insights that, well, insightful.
