A good creature effect movie
I really enjoyed this film. Yes, it does have CGI lions, but my question is how could they make this film without CGI? train a lion to attack a human but not mean it?? Impossible.So with that out the way, it's a good story, quite a simple story, good acting. A enjoyable thriller with horror tones.I would recommend this film to anyone wanting a good, fun evenings entertainment.

Great adventure
I bought this as soon as it was available on dvd, the best cgi is the best i have ever seen, worth buying for that as well as the scenery as its shot on location in Africa, good story, edge of your seat action and as always idris delivers the goods, he's the man

Great little animal attack thriller.
I really enjoyed this one even though I wasn’t expecting too much. I like Idris Elba and he didn’t disappoint in this great little effort. On the same lines as “Cujo “ although nowhere near as good but it certainly does have great moments of tension when the lion attacks. The CGI was absolutely fine so I don’t know what some other reviewers were going on about, believe me I’ve seen a hell of a lot worse. A sad indictment of how horrible poachers are decimating the beautiful animal kingdom and I was delighted when they got theirs. The two young daughters were both marvellous and heroic and gave great performances throughout. The movie looks beautiful and it does have some genuine exciting moments which did make me jump on several occasions which is the definite sign that for entertainment value a movie is working. This one definitely worked for me and I was glad that I finally got to see it. A father fighting to the death to save his family, poachers getting their just deserts and a rouge lion looking for revenge, what more can a girl ask for.!
