African Cats (2010)
10/10
Breathtaking and gorgeous.
4 January 2020
"African Cats", despite its name is NOT about all African cats. Instead of showing cats like leopards and servals, the film focuses exclusively on a pride of lions and a mother cheetah raising their young in the Masai Mara region of Kenya.

So why did I give this one a 10? Well, because it is among the most perfect nature documentaries you can find. The narration (by Samuel L. Jackson) is intelligently written and informative. But the real stars are the cinematographers...who get some of the best nature footage you could ever see. In many ways, it feels like you've been transported to the plains with these creatures....and the gorgeous music work together with the footage to produce an amazing film.

By the way, although the animals make some kills in the films and the animals occasionally fight, the film is pretty easy to watch and the most gruesome footage hasn't been included in the movie. So, the tender of heart can relax and enjoy.
