I love this movie so much

In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

I read in some reviews people complaining this is not a "pure" documentary, that it might have been edited to create a certain storyline. All I know is that every documentary has editing, and that clearly this one was made a bit dramatic on purpose (and that is the only reason I don't rate it 10)... but I don't care - It is excellent! It generates a wide range of feelings (good and bad) and I simply could not stop thinking about it later... It not only serves well the Big cats cause but it is also very good entertainment. Even if you are not a wildlife documentary fan, this will touch you. Please see it! It does mean it should be the only Africa documentary you should see, I've already seen other great ones, like Eternal enemies our Great Migrations, but this one is very nice complement.

The Last Lions is an excellent documentary that illustrates the drive to survive in nature. Without giving it away, the film clearly illustrates that Mother Nature is a system of checks and balances and outcomes aren't what they always appear to be.....As a high school science teacher, this film helps my students understand how nature works and the impact the human species is having on the natural world. The Jouberts have always made excellent films that help students understand that nature is always changing and we can help keep it from disappearing. I hope that they continue to make these documentaries and help shed light on the natural world.

This movie gives away something more than a normal documentary, it makes us feel for our emotions, emotions for the lions we watched in this movie. It is most beautiful animal story i have ever watched, thrilling but very beautiful. It shows us the real life of lioness and her cubs going through difficulties that the wild life has to offer. Wonderful narrator, one of the best, top class cinematography and lovely music. Emotional, beautiful and thrilling, this is not a ordinary documentary, it is a masterpiece. 10/10 must seen movie for those who have emotions and want to get more from a documentary.The trailer doesn't give the movie the look and feel and is some kind of misleading how the film really is.

Beautifully shot, no question about it. But the anthropomorphizing is just too much. Why force a dramatic story where there is none. The real wild Africa is disappearing rapidly, but this type of film is not going to do anything to understand what is going on. I also find it really offensive to present a totally fabricated story as a "wildlife" documentary. Granted one has to take creative licenses and I respect the fact that you cannot shoot a film like that in a matter of weeks. But then don't present this as a document from the wild.Warning "Spoiler" Furthermore, why pay $10 to see this in a theater when you can see wildlife documentaries 24/7 in HD at home. In 3D, yes... but then again with my iPod turned up full blast to cancel the noise coming out of Jeremy Irons mouth.
