      Celeste Busk Chicago Sun-Times This is 3-D cinematography at its best, and parents who are looking for educational films for their children that will hold their interest are in luck: Youngsters will be mesmerized. Rated: 4/4 Sep 15, 2006 Full Review Michael Esposito Chicago Tribune Director Stassen opts to avoid leaping cats out for blood, instead presenting an interesting depth of field in faraway places, populated by the animals we learned to love as children and living in their natural habitats. Rated: 3/4 Sep 14, 2006 Full Review Roger Moore Orlando Sentinel Wild Safari isn't the most original large-format movie ever, but at least it's one that's most appropriate for a museum such as the Orlando Science Center. Rated: 3/5 Jun 16, 2006 Full Review Harry Haun Film Journal International Quite a trip--a seven-story-tall, very much in-your-face, danger-free excursion into the authentic wilds of South Africa. Mar 1, 2007 Full Review Jim Lane Sacramento News & Review On the excitement scale, this one leans toward ho-hum. Rated: 2/5 May 12, 2006 Full Review David Barton Sacramento Bee Despite its size and subject matter, Wild Safari 3D is pretty tame and two-dimensional. Rated: 2/4 Feb 10, 2006 Full Review Read all reviews

      Audience Member good doc interesting material Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review Audience Member Great 3D...a little too great. I almost got sick. Not my favourite Imax 3D. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Audience Member I would be scared to be sitting on the front of the truck with lions roaming free. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/17/23 Full Review Audience Member Camera angle a little bit shaky, not one of the best IMAX's I've seen but not bad either. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review Audience Member Good, but too short and not the best vehicle for a 3D medium Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Audience Member Interesting safari film, hampered by the gimmick of actually being in the truck. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/19/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
