| The New York TimesBosley CrowtherMr. Disney's earnest people have done a remarkable job of collecting some extraordinary footage and his editors have assembled it well for excitement and fascination, more than for education. |
| User ReviewClaudine MGreat movie for kids. I watched this growing up and remember some awe-inspiring nature shots and some animal interactions that were quite entertaining. May not be as interesting to an adult, but I still love it, maybe out of nostalgia. |
| User ReviewSophia WIt's a very well-done movie with music that fits on every scene!It's a bit like a piece of childhood...And - of course - by Disney!!! |
| User ReviewKen SA Disney documentary with moments of beauty and humor. |
| User ReviewDouglas BI have very good memories of this - but can I trust my memories of fifty years ? |
| User ReviewAdam RThe first of the full length True-Life Adventures is not especially remarkable. I also thought the film focused too much on the tarantula, which is not exactly my favorite animal to begin with. (First and only viewing - 8/23/2015) |
