Trivia:
The voice of the Hyrax - the animal Samson considers eating - was provided by a member of the film's production team, who was known for breaking into the Hyrax's faux-British accent from time to time. The DVD release of the film includes a featurette on the crewmember-turned-voice actor. moreGoofs:
Revealing mistakes: Larry the anaconda is shown blinking numerous times in the film. Snakes have no eyelids and cannot blink. He's also rather thin for an anaconda - they are heavy-bodied snakes - and has no trouble hearing the other characters when they talk to him, even though snakes have no external ears and are deaf to airborne sound. moreQuotes:
[first lines]Samson: So there I was, face to face with the biggest, meanest leopard on the savannah and...
Ryan: You roared so loud, his spots flew off. Dad I've heard that story a billion times.

Plot A group of zoo animals escapes from the zoo in search of Ryan, a lion cub who was mistakenly shipped off to the wild. They search through city, sea and jungle in search of the cub with a determined Samson who is Ryan's father. The animals must put aside their differences in hopes of reuniting the father and son.
What's right with it?
All of the characters have unique personalities that stand out. It is easy to relate to each of the animals. The animation is one of Disney's best to date. We should have more CGI animated flicks like this.
What's wrong with it?
The story isn't completely original. It is very similar to Finding Nemo with the father-son relationship as well as Madagascar, although It was in the works long before Madagascar was even thought up. It is also similar to The Lion King.
Watch it if you liked: Finding Nemo, Madagascar and The Lion King.
