  From the outset it is clear that this 'Disney Classic' is missing the magic required to class it along such greats as The Lion King, Aladdin etc. It is ... read more »

  Disney should do better
  
  Madagascar, Nemo, Lion King etc. throw them all together and this is what you get without being half as good . Awesome animation though, and the kids like it.

  The Wild
  
  Similar to Madagascar but have to say not as good.
  
  Story line was good until they got onto the island then it all seemed over far too quick
