Rosana B Após alguns meses afastada, voltei a maratonar os filmes Disney, iniciando com esse belo exemplar, de cinco filhotes fofíssimos, amoooo... A mamãe ursa parda e seus dois filhotes lutando contra os machos escrotos que querem se alimentar deles, os macaquinhos do Sri Lanka, e o filhotinho vulnerável, os meus preferidos... Os guepardos solitários e fofos e leões sempre sofridos por serem expulsos aos 2 anos da matilha... Alternadamente, e por fim o majestoso chimpanzé, o Rei da floresta... Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/02/24 Full Review Audience Member From the start of this document into the end is nothing short of an incredible experience, the documentary take to long I'm a journey of life with multiple different species of animals. highlighting their true nature, shows their struggles in highest points as they grow and mature, for example the lion cubs and how it takes too long on their journey to becoming adult lions. It follows multiple species of young animals in the obstacles they face in their every day life, such as finding food, hiding from potential predators, and even finding the correct shelter all play a part in this amazing documentary. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Audience Member A pointless nature compilation. It has footage from four different Disneynature films that came before it, but it is poorly thrown together with bad narration. (First and only viewing - 8/3/2017) Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/19/23 Full Review Audience Member Cute animals. A bit of a rehashing of the chimp, monkey, cheetah, & polar bear movies from before, but focusing on them as babies. The narrator was ok. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review april m Don't know if Diggs was the best choice for narration but I did enjoy the storyline. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Read all reviews
