A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

You have to give credit to the Germans for trying, it's not the worst animated film in the world but not the best ever. Some scenes were confusing, such as the hunter being knocked out and having his aircraft crashing in the valley, then moments later re-appears in his room to grab more guns. (spoilers, whoops)The animation was fantastic, but doesn't scream Pixar-fantastic. Lip sync could've been better, because some scenes lip syncs were in English, others in German with English dubs.Overall, this makes a decent youth animation for children. But if you're a film enthusiast, you probably shouldn't watch this if you don't want your perfection expectations to fall low. All I can say is, the Germans did a splendid job at the animation side, just not so well with the storyline (movie mistakes and whatnot) and voice dubs. Good job, lads.

Despite trying with some cheap jokes, the overall tone of this movie is rather dark, but what really bothers me is the inconsistency of the story and the overabundance of factual errors and improbabilities, in this movie we have African buffaloes with fur, upper incisors and (in the German dub) a Spanish accent, saltwater fish in a large open-top tank in either Botswana, Namibia or Angola (evaporation apparently being a non-issue for these tanks), animals from all over the globe who arrive in these landlocked regions after leaving a bathtub they used to cross the oceans, a biplane with an ATGM launcher, etc.. The worst of all these factual errors, IMHO, are the vegetarian lion - the rest of the carnivorous protagonists don't seem to eat anything either - and the dam closing in all water (instead of letting through roughly the same amount as before since otherwise it would simply spill over), because these are obvious plot devices to indoctrinate children with the political messages of this movie (meat is bad, mankind is evil).

I am a teenager and i saw this movie, it was on Netflix and i thought id watch it because i love animated kids movies, i sincerely regret watching it. the plot, what plot? the movie was all over the place, it was like the animators just threw in a bunch of characters and just called it a movie, this movie literally just had a bunch of random characters come in, there were two random turtles, a kangaroo, a koala, a Tasmanian Devil, a random polar bear, oh don't even get me started on the polar bear, and a chicken, along with a bunch of safari animals. there was a damn polar bear in the safari, how?!? there were no back stories, no character or plot back stories, like how did the turtles, kangaroo, taz devil, polar bear and a chicken, get a damn floating bathtub and end up all together, and float onto the banks of the safari? i mean come on people, oh and i wasn't paying attention at the end but why were all the animals in new York or whatever city they went to? and also the voice synchronization was horrible, do not watch this movie!

**** possible spoiler... although there isn't much of a plot to spoil**** Like another viewer, I created an account specifically to review this horrid waste of time. I love animation and am willing to suspend belief to follow a good storyline, but this movie is one of the worst I have ever had the misfortune to sit through.The graphics are disproportionate, the ecological message bludgeons the audience from the start, and the storyline makes no sense. At one point, there is a chicken, a polar bear, two (what appear to be) Galapagos terrapins, a kangaroo and a Tasmanian devil all floating across some ocean in a rusty bathtub... and no reasonable explanation as to how these creatures all suddenly came to inhabit said bathtub.Trust me, the scene description above is indicative of the entire movie. Worst piece of drivel I've observed in a long time, and I've watched some monumentally bad movies with poor ratings and given them the benefit of the doubt. Save yourself; don't waste your (or your children's) time with this piece of garbage.
