The animation may not be in the same class as The Lion King, but co-directors Jeff McGrath and Cathy Malkasian deserve praise for their attempts to render Africa's wildlife as authentically as possible. Jan 29, 2003 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

Nickelodeon's animated explorer family runs into poachers in Africa in a sometimes-fun adventure that occasionally collapses into flat, savanna-like stretches. Aug 7, 2008 | Rating: 2/5

I loved this when I was a kid, but its only for people who know the show well like I did, but now its just an okay movie.
Super Reviewer
a fantastic to screen adaptation of the TV show
Just an overlong episode really. Contains nothing at all new accept a few of the voice cameos and a bigger budget. Some nice humour and family friendly action scenes though.
There are no approved quotes yet for this movie.
