Better than average film that inhabits the same genre circle as "The Great Elephant Escape," "The Ivory Hunters," "Born Wild," "A Far Off Place," "Cheetah" and the grandfather of all of them, "Clarence the Crossed-Eyed Lion" and it's TV spinoff "Daktari." Africa, saving animals (in this case elephants), colorful scenery, an American family, evil poachers, we've seen it before, but what the heck, it's better than seeing this week's newest ripoff of "Halloween." The photography nicely displays the color of modern Africa though the sound is so muddy that at times it's difficult to hear anyone (not that it matters much).
