      Audience Member Bill and Virginia travel to Africa as themselves this time for what is another fine showcase for the animals of sub-Saharan part of the continent. There's not much to the storyline though other, it's more a case of being in awe of the setting with elephants playing a heavy part in proceedings. The most interesting part involves meeting the lions once again from 'Born Free' and the real life George Adamson also makes an appearance at this point. The film by no means captures the same magic as 'Born Free' despite the same set of actors and director. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member It seemed like it tried to be half documentary and half movie, yet it did not do well as either.
