I've enjoyed three safaris myself. Of course, a theater will never give you the actual experience of the Serengeti and film can never replace vision, but the images here are abundant with high quality animal life and rich with animal emotion. Go to Full Review

3/4
While Africa is completely absorbing, it's best viewed as a primer to the subject matter. With its 40-minute run time, viewers are able to grasp only a surface understanding of the material. Go to Full Review

s r @ScottR 01/11/2013 Brief and to the point telling the story of the migrations of the Serengeti Wildebeasts and the predators and obstacles they overcome. It is beautiful, powerful and raw at the same time. See more 07/29/2010 Great Documentary. stunning visuals and memorable narration by James Earl Jones. See more 02/17/2010 Great visuals and soundtrack. Despite all IMAX movies being quite short this one felt just long enough given the content. I didn't realize it's 16 years old now and it still looks as good as new on the IMAX screen. See more 04/05/2009 Great wildlife shots!! Amazing...and I love James Earl Jones' voice. See more 03/14/2009 Some breathtaking pans over Africa, but I could have done without the generous use of the fish-eye lenses. The history lesson is also quite a bit off. See more 02/27/2009 think this is why james got to do his voice for lion king ;-) See more Read all reviews
