Don't miss this unforgettable, stunning film that reveals the dramatic, savage and awe-inspiring lives of these fascinating creatures. (official distributor synopsis)

Of course, this isn’t about the story and, as usual, the commentary is for children, but the visual experience is great. When a spider measuring several meters in length descends from the ceiling and shakes its legs in front of your face for half a minute, it’s something different than when a fish flicks its tail in front of your face. The same is true of the experience of seeing a ten-meter-long praying mantis sucking the guts out of a disgusting blowfly. Ninety-eight percent of Bugs! is in 3D, all beautifully colourful and underscored with an endearing soundtrack. I highly recommend seeing it in IMAX.
