I watch a lot of nature documentaries and the ones by BBC Nature have set the bar very high. "African Cats" by Disney Nature is the first film that has equaled or exceeded BBC Nature in quality. The picture quality is absolutely stunning! They must be using the highest quality cameras and lenses. The editing and music are all top quality. Some people might object to the dramatic narration by Samuel L. Jackson but I liked it. Of course the real stars here are the lions and cheetahs. The film does a really good job of showing how they interact with each other socially. While some people might accuse the film of being anthropomorphic, I felt it did an honest job of showing their social hierarchy. If you are a fan of nature documentaries, you can't miss "African Cats."

I watch at least one movie per day and the African Cats was a GREAT surprise for me. The photography was absolutely EXCELLENT and the video was ABSOLUTELY superb for creating a story line that gets you deeply involved with the two families of African cats and their challenges to survive. With the south lion pride lead by Fang (older) and with Layla being a older and wiser lioness with a daughter named Mara comes some heart rendering real life decisions, especially when she becomes wounded and then we see the real life choices that she must make. Then we get to experience the challenges from Kali (younger male lion) who crosses the river with his sons to challenge Fang's rule of the pride - amazing storyline and video. As for the Sita, the cheetah mother with her 5 cubs, with her being the sole support and defender of her family comes some really heart rendering scenes as she puts it all on the line to defend her family from three male cheetahs, a pack of hyenas and male lions. Both families were great but I must give my vote for Sita for standing alone with only her courage and wit to get protect her family so that her cubs can become adult cheetahs. I watched the movie without the cut-in scenes (additional footage and story) and then I watched it again with the cut-in scenes. I almost NEVER watch a movie twice - EVER. This is a great movie with a story line with lessons for mankind and it also gives us a much greater understanding of the lives of both lions and cheetahs and their interactions with other animals in Africa. The scenes of actually terminating the lives of their game is cut short so this should be acceptable to most that can't or don't want to see what really happens during killing another animal, but this doesn't detract from the movie's authenticity. I can only offer my suggestion that this is a must see movie and I can't imagine not becoming involved in the animals lives; and, their real life challenges for survival; and, their many other varied real life experiences. I will be watching this movie again very soon.
