6/10. It wasn't bad, it just could have been better. 6/10. It wasn't a bad movie, it just could have been a little bit better. I am really not that picky on my movie watching and usually give pretty good ratings. I feel like this movie could have spent 10 to 20 minutes on the lead in or back story to help us understand what the family is going through. I feel that would have taken the story a long way, it's not like they didn't have the time to add the back story, the movie was only 95 minutes long. The acting was decent, the animals were totally fake, the lion could have used more color. How old are the kids? Please give me more information........
