Disney Classic #50 The Wild
Although independent Canadian-made, The Wild proudly carries the Disney Classic label. You would expect the necessary fireworks from the 'magical' number fifty in the series: however, that is disappointing.
This film is not really bad either with some humorous moments and a pleasant pace. Unfortunately, the story is mainly a combination of Madagascar, Finding Nemo and The Lion King. With the main lines of Madagascar and the tone of my (youth) favorite from 1994.
In the beginning I often found the traveling companion downright annoying, but in the course of the film it becomes a fairly entertaining company. That may have to do with the voice acting, which was quite well put together. Still, overall it remains a very mediocre film that doesn't do much visually.
2.5*

Disney Classic 50: this film disappointed us. The whole Disney atmosphere that makes most films so powerful seems far away in this film. Most jokes are downright lame or produce a faint smile on your face. No, I wouldn't watch this movie again anytime soon, too bad!

Visually very nicely made animation and maybe a bit ahead of its time. In terms of story and film itself, not much special to me
