Laikals The greatest movie ever made..!
Kailansorac Clever, believable, and super fun to watch. It totally has replay value.
Chantel Contreras It is both painfully honest and laugh-out-loud funny at the same time.
Lela The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.
ractajeno I started making VHS tapes of Marty Stouffer's Wild America TV show as a young adult. Back then, the series was aired on the local PBS station. It became one of the shows I was most glad to support with my PBS membership.If you liked the TV series as much as I, you will no doubt enjoy this movie about Marty and his brothers as well. Mark Stouffer worked with Marty on the TV series as an assistant director and Marty's wife and kids shared the spotlight with Marty at times as well. Mark has also done work on other television shows including some that have ties to nature like Wild America.
disdressed12 this movie has the based on a true story tag,but i'm sure there were dramatic licenses taken.the people in the story are real and some of them are probably still around.that much is certain.beyond that,this movie makes for light,though pretty entertaining viewing.it does seem a bit far fetched at times,though.and the story is pretty thin.there is really nothing offensive about the movie that i can tell.there's is no foul language or nudity.there are a few intense scenes with animals that might be a bit too much for young children.i think the movie would be suitable for kids 10 or older,but parents should always use their discretion.overall,this is a fun movie the family could enjoy.for me,Wild America is 7.5/10
jacquelr My husband found a box of old VHS movies after moving into a new home recently. I finally decided to watch this and thought it would be like a "Free Willy" or something. I planned to watch it with my toddler but she fell asleep and I'm glad she did. I thought it was going to be a really kiddie movie but it turned out to be great! I loved the story line, the adventure, it kept my interest to the very end. The reason I didn't give it a 10 was because it did seem a tad bit too long...my hubby kept popping in saying is that movie still on? Nevertheless, I was thoroughly entertained. I found it delightful and wholesome but with an edge. It's nice to escape with a good film that makes u feel good especially with so much garbage that's out there today.
MovieAddict2016 "Wild America" is definitely not a great film, but it's okay. There are some interesting moments, but I found that the over-bearing sentimentality and cuteness mixed with adult content -- adult to a certain degree -- to be confusing. One tends to wonder if the film is adult, or family. Things are thrown around too much. First it's adult subject matter, then it's a broken heart moment filled with overly-sentimental acting. "Wild America" fills my list of "family films that couldn't decide to be adult or not".2.5/5 stars. If you want to see good parts, just fast-forward to scenes with the wild animals chasing the kids. It's fun to watch--John Ulmer
