August 15, 2011Disneys way of trying to keep up with Dreamworks Madagascar. This was a boring a terrible film.
-
August 15, 2011It's quite simply a rip off of Dreamworks Madagascar, nothing is interesting and the characters are not at all original making this film one of the worst disney have created.

April 23, 2011For an animated Disney film is is very disappointing. Maybe kids will get a kick out of the hectic commotion, but there is very little for grown-ups to enjoy here. The characters are flat, some even annoying, and the gags just don't work most of the time. At least the plot is alw... read more

June 16, 2010The animation is unimpressive, story sucks and its not original, there is no memorable scenes or lines, and makes Madagascar look like it never existed.
THIS MOVIE SHOULD BE BANNED FROM THE WHOLE WORLD!!!! -

Another animated film from 2006 that's right in that average category. Full Review

Peter Hartlaub, San Francisco Chronicle
As a movie that kids will enjoy with a few adult-oriented gags to keep parents from going completely insane with boredom, The Wild accomplishes its unambitious mission. Full Review

Geoff Pevere, Toronto Star
Technically, The Wild is impressive. Until you realize that the lifelike animated fur is the product of more professional care than the script. Full Review

The Wild may just be the most wildly derivative animated movie in ages. Full Review

Kids under 6 will dig it -- though the alligators and wildebeests might scare them. Certainly they scared this groan-up.

Roger Moore, Orlando Sentinel
So what if the story, once they get to Africa, is no better than Madagascar? It's hard to let wild predators do wild things when those wild things involve killing the other furry friends. Full Review

Lisa Rose, Newark Star-Ledger
With blah CG animation and scattershot punchlines, the movie fails to beat mediocrity. Full Review

Kyle Smith, New York Post
These films take years to produce, so The Wild isn't exactly a ripoff -- but it isn't exactly fun, either.

Jack Mathews, New York Daily News
The Wild isn't stuffed with pop references for bored parents, as Madagascar was, but its juvenile spirit is truly infectious. Full Review
