Story Synopsis:
Sampson (Sutherland) is king of the jungle, ah... zoo, and the only thing he loves more than telling stories is his son Ryan (Cipes). When Ryan is crated away one day, Sampson makes his escape and hits the streets of New York. And with zoo pals Benny (Belushi), Nigel (Izzard), Bridget (Garofalo), and Larry (Kind) along for the rescue, they discover just how dangerous it can be out in The Wild. (Tricia Spears)
DVD Picture:
With incredible detail and dimensionality, the CGI-based anamorphically enhanced 1.78:1 DVD picture can look very realistic. The artists used elaborate defocusing techniques to impart a sense of dimension, which is occasionally overdone, creating a blurred mess that makes things difficult to recognize. The colors are slightly desaturated, which really seems out of place with this being an animated title. The fantastic detail easily conveys the textures of the various fur, hair, and vegetation, also making it easy to determine which animals are wild and which are zoo animals, based on their hygiene. It really is a delight to watch. (Danny Richelieu)
