Storyline
Ryan is a lion who wants to go to the wild, where his dad (Samson) once lived. When he gets himself shipped to Africa, his zoo friends (and Samson) work together to bring him back. When they get to Africa, however, the animals find themselves in a pile of danger. They have to fight an evil wildebeest called Kazar. But Kazar's safe compared to the other danger on the island- a volcano that's on the edge of eruption. Can the animals find Ryan and get out of Africa before the volcano erupts in so little time?

User Reviews
I know what many of you are thinking. How is this film going to be any different from Madagascar. Disney and Dreamworks are in direct competition. The wild was in production for quite sometime due to the fallout of Pixar and the discovery of a new animation team to finish the film. It just so happens that Madasgascar was rushed and released before the wild, making Disney look like the bad guy. That being said I have to be honest and say the two are similar..... by premise only. Both films contain a group of animals escaping the New York Zoo to go to the wild. That alone leaves plenty of room for creativity and THE WILD accomplishes just that. I thoroughly enjoyed this film from beginning to end. Its quite charming, full of jokes, has an amazing attention to detail and visually stunning. I actually found myself HOWLING at some parts of this film. Everyone at the premiere came to a consensus that the wild is a great movie. Children and parents were both laughing in hysterics. Plus the movie includes morals and lessons to be learned for the kiddies. I understand that many of you are reluctant to see this film given the timing. But I urge you to give it a chance. It is worth your $10 dollars at the box office, and you just might be surprised.
