John Serba Decider The plot’s too logic-deprived, the characters too wispy-thin, the situation too predictable, the seams of the production too visible. Jun 26, 2024 Full Review Jennie Kermode Eye for Film Hirsch, who is nothing if not prolific, hasn’t had great luck with his recent roles, but dominates most of this film and gets to remind us what he’s capable of. Rated: 3/5 Apr 29, 2024 Full Review Jeffrey M. Anderson Common Sense Media The best thing about this low-budget B thriller is its beautiful African nature footage, which seems to have come from a stock footage library. The human part of the story goes quickly and permanently off the rails. Rated: 2/5 Mar 29, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews

N M One of the worst movies I've ever seen. A 5 yr old could have written a better plot. 😂 At a bare minimum at least have the Lions in the same " Scene" as the humans. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 07/18/24 Full Review Christopher J. M It’s so bad it makes me question RT’s entire rating system. No human could give this 1+ stars. So I guess it’s mostly bots… and maybe some crazy Christians. But probably mostly Christian bots. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 07/15/24 Full Review Luke G On the long list of worst movies ever made, this one comes in near the bottom. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 07/01/24 Full Review Michael S One of the worst movies I’ve ever seen in my life. All of the animals were stock footage and stock videos, and some were artificial intelligence made. The plot had no real story through it, and it was almost not believable. What’s the point of making such a movie when you know, it’s just to fill up space and to provide content to your users who are going to hate it. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 06/28/24 Full Review Mckayla M This movie was actually laughable. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 06/28/24 Full Review Kristen W This film was a let down and I’m surprised it has such a high score. Even for a low budget film, there was so much wasted potential. 3 well known talented actors, a compelling survival scenario and epic setting, but the writing, directing, and editing really missed the mark. I would agree with many of the other reviews noting character development, action sequences, dialogue and effects as all lacking. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 06/26/24 Full Review Read all reviews
