Cath Clarke Guardian There’s lots here for curious kids to pick up on: the poaching, the differences between kids’ lives depending on where they live in the world. Or they can enjoy the film as a good, fun adventure. Rated: 3/5 Mar 12, 2024 Full Review Christie Cronan Common Sense Media Rhino poaching mystery has animal death; peril; language.
