Stop me if you’ve heard this one before: A lion and his friends rule the zoo at night, after all the people have gone home. When one of their own ends up missing, the animals escape from the zoo, travel around the urban jungle, and then wind up on a jungle island where they have to adapt to the…
Heard it before? Yet despite its extreme similarities to Madagascar, Walt Disney Studios’ The Wild is a very different picture. Sure the storyline may be very close, at least until the animals get on the island (which, granted, is the bulk of the film) but Disney takes a far different approach to the story that Dreamworks released last year.
The most obvious difference is the visual approach to the movie. While Madagascar went with a heavily stylized, cartoonish feel, Disney takes a more realistic approach to its film. The result is stunning at times, with lush jungles and furry animals that look almost lifelike. The CGI animation is quite impressive most of the time, with one downfall. Because the animals are made to look so real, they lose some of their expressiveness. The extremely talented vocal abilities of the cast make up for the lost visual, but it is still a loss for the movie.
The second difference is that this is not a buddy picture like its predecessor. The story here centers around a father and son set of lions who can’t seem to communicate properly, leading to the son running off in an attempt to discover his inner roar by traveling to “the wild.” This element takes the story in a very usual Disney direction, focusing on a character (or characters) who are trying to find their place in the world. Because of that, the movie carries elements of Disney’s biggest animated hit, The Lion King. Some people will tell you Disney’s just ripping off as many pictures as they can with this film, but I think the nods to The Lion King are strong points for this film, and an element that really separates it from Madagascar.
The film goes in an interesting direction for the cast, handing roles over to very non-Disney style actors like Kiefer Sutherland, Janeane Garofalo, and most notably, Eddie Izzard. The actors do a marvelous job of bringing very strong characters to life. I had great concerns from the trailers that the movie would try to set Izzard’s koala character up to be that annoying breakout character for the film. The truth is the film sets all of the characters up that way. There isn’t a character here that doesn’t serve a purpose for the story and really get a chance to shine, with unique personalities and performances for all. Besides, where else are you going to get a film with Izzard and William Shatner?
Disney’s The Wild is a fun movie with fun characters, entertaining visuals, and a Disney style-story that most people will be able to relate to. So what if it bears a striking similarity to another picture released in the last year? That shouldn’t keep you from enjoying it, possibly even more than the other film.

Movie studios are notorious for pushing uninspired remakes, movies which borrow heavily from successful films, and sequels made for the sole purpose of turning a quick profit onto unsuspecting audiences. But with The Wild, the filmmakers have just pushed things too far. There’s nothing original here. Hardly a single character, scene or storyline in this unappealing and surprisingly lifeless animated movie is something we haven't seen done before - and done better. The Wild is more of the same old thing, wrapped in a just barely whisper-thin disguise.
I don’t know who had the idea first – the filmmakers behind Madagascar or The Wild. Frankly I don’t care and neither should audiences. What does matter is that The Wild feels like a warmed over version of Madagascar and that film is recent enough (it was released in May 2005) that it’s still relatively fresh in our minds. Audiences will immediately notice the striking similarities between the two family films and justifiably feel as though they're watching an alternate cut of Madagascar rather than a film that stands on its own.
A scene from the animated animal movie, The Wild.
&; Walt Disney Pictures
Both films feature New York Zoo animals. Both movies have a lion and a giraffe in prominent roles. Madagascar and The Wild also have rebellious penguins and zoo occupants who party once the people leave. The heroes of both films break out of their zoo enclosures and make their way through the streets of New York, although only in The Wild is the Times Square sequence so jarringly full of proct placement. The main characters in both films ultimately wind up on a boat the animals commandeer in order to get to the wild. The similarities don’t end once the characters crash into land. In both movies, the New York Zoo creatures are met by dancing animals led by a bizarre ruler. Madagascar and The Wild even try and teach the same basic lessons.
As for the voice cast, I admire Kiefer Sutherland (and I’m addicted to 24) but there’s not enough warmth in his voice as Samson, the father lion forced to travel to the wild to retrieve his young son. Sutherland’s vocal performance is basically a one note affair. He never connects emotionally and that's absolutely mandatory when bringing an animated character to life.
Sutherland’s not the only member of the voice cast who fails to make much of an impression. Eddie Izzard is a wise-cracking Koala who generates the film’s few laughs. Izzard pushes the comedy toward a PG rating but apparently wasn't allowed to take the final step. Jim Belushi was just okay as a squirrel in love with a giraffe. And speaking of the giraffe, I had no idea she was voiced by Janeane Garofalo until I read through the credits after watching the movie. Is that a good thing? Not in this case. Garofalo’s biting wit wasn’t included in the character’s personality. Had it been, The Wild may have wound up a little edgier and not the total snorefest it turned out to be.
To sum it up, The Wild is pointless. There are only a couple of good chuckles, the animation is beautiful yet detached, and the plot is Madagascar all over again with a little Finding Nemo sprinkled in for good measure. Even if Madagascar didn't exist, The Wild wouldn't be worth the price of a ticket. It’s a movie that, if it absolutely had to be made, should have gone straight to DVD. Rent almost any other recent animated movie, make your own popcorn, and save yourself some money.

Antz” and “A Bug’s Life.” “Deep Impact” and “Armageddon.” It’s been a while since major Hollywood studios have come out with competing films that were alike in concept. Now renewing the feud, Disney releases “The Wild,” a picture so similar to Dreamworks’ “Madagascar” that it’s shocking there hasn’t been a major lawsuit involved.
Like “Madagascar,” “The Wild” begins in New York’s Central Park Zoo. Lion cub Ryan (Greg Cipes), born in the zoo, lives in the shadow of his wild-born father Samson (Kiefer Sutherland). Unable to roar ferociously, Ryan runs away and finds himself inadvertently loaded on a shipment heading to Africa. Feeling responsible, Samson sets out to find his son and bring him home, but not without the help of some oddball friends, including a giraffe, a koala, a snake and a squirrel.
Like most animated features, “The Wild” features some impressive voice talent. Along with Kiefer “Jack Bauer” Sutherland, other actors lending their voices to characters include Janeane Garafalo as Britney the Giraffe, a surprisingly funny James Belushi as Benny the Squirrel, and William Shatner as the evil Wildebeest Kazar. All put in good performances, but Eddie Izzard stands out as the hilarious Koala Nigel, who is inexplicably English and not Australian.
The similarities to “Madagascar” are too abundant to mention, but there are some differences. For one thing, the story has a little more heart. The father/son bonding story in “The Wild” is more akin to “Finding Nemo,” another Disney picture, but made by Pixar. Also, the romantic subplot between odd couple Bridget the Giraffe and Benny the Squirrel is quite humorous.
Although not a Pixar creation, “The Wild” is beautifully animated; especially in its darker moments. The effects are almost too perfect, however. The characters in the film are so lifelike that sometimes their visages lack the ability to convey a suitable amount of emotion, which ultimately hurts one’s ability to properly relate to them. But some of the effects are quite affective, specifically those of the opening dream sequence of the film, which are some of the most inspired in quite a while.
“The Wild” is a slight improvement over “Madagascar” (if only because the characters are a little less annoying), but the film still falls short of being anything other than box office filler. Although the idea of having the prey become predator (wildebeest hunting lions) is an interesting one, the basic story and characters are nothing new, and the action of the film is actually a little tedious. Kids may enjoy this as a DVD rental, however.

The Wild," the latest feature cartoon from the Walt Disney Studio, starts out with a few strikes against it, including a story suspiciously similar to last year's not-so-hot "Madagascar." But "The Wild," as it turns out, is better than its zoo-escape rival. It has a good director, snazzy visuals and some really funny animals, and that's at least half the battle.
Directed by visual effects specialist Steve "Spaz" Williams, "Wild" is about a group of New York City zoo chums who wind up in the jungles together and find that living there, while sometimes a blast, can be hazardous to their health. For them, a world full of predatory beasts isn't necessarily preferable to a city full of Yankees fans and occasional muggers.
If that story sounds a lot like "Madagascar," it may be because there aren't that many ideas circulating around Hollywood these days. In any case, "The Wild" sends its zoo crew, headed by star lion Samson (Kiefer Sutherland), back to the jungle and presents them with an unnerving foe-- a gang of over reaching wildebeests, prodded by their bullying leader Kazar (William Shatner), who wants them all to rise up on the food chain.
"Madagascar," with its similar setup, wasn't a very good movie. If you enjoyed it, it was probably because you g the all-star vocal cast (Chris Rock as the zebra, Ben Stiller as the lion, David Schwimmer as the giraffe and Jada Pinkett Smith as the sensuous hippo) and the bows to the great minimalist style of Looney Tunes maestros Chuck Jones and Friz Freleng.
"The Wild" is better, mostly because it has some truly spectacular animation and because the cast is just as likable--even, in some cases, preferable.
Sutherland's Samson, whom I like as a lion better than Stiller as Alex, is the zoo's big sports star (in a weird sport called turtle-curling, involving actual turtles) and also the overly boastful dad of teenage cub Ryan (Greg Cipes of "Deadwood"), who has been beguiled by Dad's tales of the old veld battles and wants to see for himself. So he does, after getting wrongly boxed up for shipment, with his would-be rescuers Samson and his buddies chasing through New York, its alligator-infested sewer system and eventually across the ocean.
If Sutherland's lion edges Stiller's (on leonine sincerity alone), I'd say Janeane Garofalo also easily wins the giraffe sweepstakes over Schwimmer's sad-sack Melman. As the sexy and resourceful Bridget, the unlikely love object of a fast-talking, bossy little squirrel named Benny (Jim Belushi), she's a giraffe you'd like to spend time with. There's also a friendly but dopey 21-foot anaconda named Larry (Richard Kind). And the film's funniest character is Nigel the sarcastic, shaggily British koala voiced--and apparently largely improvised--by Eddie Izzard.
Because Izzard made so much of his stuff up, Nigel has a living, breathing quality, coming across as a mixture of some dithering old British character actor and the acerbic Simon Cowell of "American Idol." When Nigel gets adopted as a deity, in a scene reminiscent of Sid's ascension in "Ice Age: The Meltdown," it's a top-of-the-world-Ma moment, especially played alongside the megalomaniac Kazar (a very ingeniously cast Shatner, whose villainy is as overstated as his heroism).
There are a lot of wisecracks in "The Wild," but the script is less vital than the visual virtuosity. Celebrated for his smashing computer effects in "The Abyss" (the water funnel) and "The Mask" (that wolf-whistle), Williams here creates backdrops so dense, you can all but feel them pressing in--filled with characters so detailed they look as three-dimensional as the dolls and toys that we know will eventually be made from them. Especially impressive: the 6 million separate hairs computer animators claim to have put into Samson's wavy mane and coat.

Ice Age 3 "and the inevitable result of success is the assembly line - Feedback
And compared to Episode II, "Ice Age 3" In the view of somewhat improved, but the overall quality of this series of films on the downward trend is still hope that procers stop there, or another bar for new ideas, but the people will certainly not listen to me, means for misappropriating campaign will be carried out in full swing. Cast aside the theme of the film itself, the merits and the plot arrangements, reasonable or not, just from the technical level, painfully convinced people that make money. It can be said of "Ice Age 3" is represented by a large number of Hollywood animated film created by the bizarre color scene of the fairy tale world of "amazing" to describe is not at too much, but I see "Ice Age 3" the greatest feeling, not only in Here, I am more impressed by the Hollywood animated film proction concepts with strong technical support of this concept has almost reached Transformation.
As animated films generally have anthropomorphic and fantasy colors, almost from the creation time, space, role constraints, Earth and even the universe can be of any species into the animated film, and to speak, human beings can be carried out in all its activities. From this point of view, extremely broad drawn animated films, as opposed to live-action film, it is reasonable for its story demands much more relaxed. But this does not mean that they can be written and directed nonsense, others do not mess things up, basically you should be given to the successful stories in, and tell you to read the laugh easily, and people put money away, bin. "Ice Age 3" It is very intuitive to see that the Hollywood animated story books written and directed several major magic weapon, put it plainly, is a proction line, according to the routine proction, virtually no run, where the poor are poor not to go.
Magic one: the role of alt sexual
, "Ice Age" series are extremely persistent in pairs of squirrel nuts, as the film an important clue, which is almost become a sign of this series of films, "Ice Age 3" is no exception, but also arranged into a female squirrel. First of all, only on the mother squirrel shape, we see is a mature form of beauty, male squirrel to see female squirrel that Indecent expression, as well as the combination of two squirrels and contradictions of having no not according to alt the evolution of thought and life. This creative approach, in the Hollywood animated film almost everywhere. Animated films have been the main audience is children, but precisely because of these "image of the child," which incorporates elements of the alt's performance, in the form and content of great contrast given rise to a strong entertainment tastes, and thus film has become young and old salt Yi had. In contrast to our animated feature films, to a large extent, are confined to the children's world, not daring to introce alt thinking, makes our animation looks very "mental handicap" and is only suitable for children, alts all day long if staring at "Haier Brothers" Look, I am afraid we have to be as "mental handicap" had. Of course, this situation has improved in recent years, but still can not relax hands and feet.
Magic 2: the broad themes
Hollywood's gang marching were that, with unrestrained imagination, almost all worldly things into their creation among small, "Horton and Anonymous" in the micro-organisms, large "ice age" in the dinosaur mammoth Like, from the "In Search of Nimes" in the deep ocean to the "WALL-E" in the vastness of the universe, from the "Madagascar" in New York's Central Park to "The Lion King" in the vast grasslands of Africa, from the Arabic legend "Aladdin" China Story "Mulan" and so on, can be said that as long as you can think of the area, almost all were involved in Hollywood animation. As a result, as long as technology licensing, Hollywood animation on the endless subject matter, while the technical support is exactly the problem the most is not an issue. It is this breadth of subject matter to create on the guarantee of the Hollywood animated film is forever full of magic, you can not think of the story will always occur, and these topics sufficient to accommodate the breadth of global culture, this let's get the soft admire American culture The underlying strength and strong technical support. And our domestic animated film is always escape from the traditional subject matter, a "row sky" for decades, has always been an insurmountable peak, it is not glory, but rather sad. Some people will say that our animation technology, immature, this is true, then we are not in the 3D field advantage in the plane animation technology should not be a problem, right? Japan's a lot of good animated films are flat, showing that the content is always greater than the form. "Gray Wolf and the radiant" seems to tell us a ray of hope, I hope this is not a flash in the pan.
Magic 3: Content of entertaining
Of course, Hollywood's biggest selling point is its animated entertainment. Take the "Ice Age 3" in the sloth Sid, this is a slick, both ways, but there is a kind-hearted soul Ichii little bully image, he almost is "Ice Age" series, the heart and soul is this series the largest entertainment spots. He has all the weaknesses of ordinary human beings, but it is ordinary human beings with basic human nature, it is this grass-roots nature of the film as a whole to ensure the PFP, which is why people find fault no matter how to film, you had to laugh after reading the smile, you smile, the money did not, and that even if the film a success. Interestingly, almost all of the animated Hollywood film has one or two similar to the role of Sid, such as "Shrek" series in the ass, "Mulan" in the series of wood to be long, "The Lion King" series of gorillas and Later, it emerged that the two clown - Ding Man and Peng Peng, the emergence of these roles greatly enhanced the film's fun colors, and some have even become masters, to be perceived as extremely impressed with the "hero." This would be good thanks to Hollywood animation procers the ability to manufacture and trafficking in entertainment, and this ability is almost instrialization, forming a proction line. The role of the basic routines have been identified, as long as the role of the creation of a walk according to this routine, basic to success. As long as amused everyone can you say? You do not see is a Lehe do?
Magic four: the plot to be human
Personally think that this is almost the soul of animated films, personification of this work well, and out of something, it could be fine. "Ice Age 3" and there was a similar to the Don Quixote-like figure - weasel Buck, this role is to embody a deeper level of what the human body, it is a pursuit, a kind of self-sacrifice the spirit of the pursuit, although the role of absurd, but we must admit that this spirit can be found in humans did. The most commendable parts of Hollywood animation is able to in the subject of ridicule in some token of entertainment among the speak out, tell you to laugh over later, have to aftertaste, rather than mechanically preaching. Impressed me so far are found in "The Lion King", the Scar Simba looking to escape the shadow of a small, murky against coyotes (if I remember correctly) said: "Kill him!" -- This scenario is an animated version of Huo Tuotuo to underworld boss looks like and tells the people pondering infinity. In "Horton and Anonymous", the final outcome shows that truth is often rests in the hands of the few in the film world and the micro-macro eventually attributed to a better world, but in reality are often difficult to achieve such a happy outcome, thus making video more profound meaning as a whole. "WALL-E" has even more in the end of the world of human desire for love plot and vividly applied to the robot's shoulders, watching film seems to have become a spiritual sublimation process. In contrast China's animated films, were always going to preach, even more ridiculous is that we have the traditional culture and ecation, moral sentiments of ecation, patriotic ecation is often temporary preaching, rather than know how to nurture learning fun, is kingly.
In addition is the leading technology of animation, this is for all to see, no talk.
"Ice Age 3" can not be considered an animated classic, but it has all the characteristics of the Hollywood animated films, animation realistic, young and old, sentimental, entertainment full. Can be said that the Hollywood animated film instry has formed the scale of pipeline operations, as long as the script without getting technical support is without question. In recent years, Hollywood's animated films, even though there are high or low quality, but almost a complete failure few examples. Because out of things on the line, all with a few of the above-mentioned characteristics of the people recognized only in the integration of these features have a level of points, but it is not sufficient to guarantee that appeared certain to win, and the rest is just profit how much money a problem.
Therefore, "Ice Age 3" They are not necessarily more successful, but the money earned clever, this genius of animated film, the Chinese people need to learn as much as.

4. 电影《狂野大自然》英文观后感
The storyline goes that the cub, Ryan was fed-up being compared to his Dad, and wished to be in the wild. But unlike the previous Disney movies, the poor Ryan was taken to the wild by accident. So his dad & their friends went on a trip to find and rescue Ryan.
So the adventure started! They found their ways through the urban New York, down the sewer and other places you'd usually do not find that animals there.
The animation is top notch, with details on the color texture, with smooth movement by the characters. The voice-over is also superb, especially Kiefer Sutherland's lion & the cuddly koala bear, Izzerd.
All in all, the movie is good for the whole family, be it a toddler or a teenager as it has very good moral values. The story do not have foul language, unlike Ice Age. The only drawback that this movie has it that the characters are very much alike the previous Disney movies such as Open Season and Madagascar. But apart from that, this movie simply rocks!
