WSR Narrative Review |

Story Synopsis:
"Father Of The Pride" is an adoROARable computer animated comedy starring those fabulous magicians Siegfried (Holloway) and Roy (Herman) and the white lions that helped make them famous. When he's not on stage performing, Larry (Goodman) the lion is either at home with his wife Kate (Hines) or out partying with best bud Snack the Gopher (Jones). With lots of laughs in store, this DVD is sure be a hit with everyone in the family. (Tricia Spears)
DVD Picture:
The anamorphically enhanced DVD picture is fantastic! The animated images are nicely detailed. Colors are richly saturated with vibrant hues. The shading and reflections create a nice sense of dimension in the picture. At times the imagery can have a slightly soft or crushed appearance, with slight pixel breakup. Otherwise, the picture offers little to complain about. This is definitely one to enjoy content-wise as well as for picture quality. (Suzanne Hodges)
