Member Rating:

Academy Award-nominated actress Natalie Portman and animal rights activist Jack Hanna team up to co-host the documentary Saving a Species: Gorillas on the Brink. Hanna and Portman embark on a journey into the wilds of Central Africa, where an increasingly rare species of ape, the imperiled mountain gorilla, roams free. In addition to searching for the magnificent beasts on-camera, the co-hosts discuss and explore the ways in which dedicated conservationists and naturalists are laboring to save the primates from complete extinction. ~ Nathan Southern, Rovi

You almost have to be suffering from Attention Deficit Disorder to watch TV these days with the 3 second video bites that they are always delivering. The same is true of this DVD. I was a bit disappointed. Instead of a close encounter exerience with these beautiful animals, I got a series of 3 second video flashes mostly of their back sides as they walked or turned away from the camera. Go watch Gorillas in the Mist instead. It may be a little more staged but it is far more beautiful.
