Based on the true story of the daredevil Stouffer brothers, "Wild America."
You wouldn't know it by watching the mostly ridiculous escapades on display in Wild America, but this comedy/adventure for young boys is marginally based on the true story of Marshall, Mark, and Marty Stouffer, three young brothers who successfully pursued their dream of becoming wildlife filmmakers. From their home in the South, the Stouffer boys embark on a cross-country trek to the West, where they hope to get rare footage from inside the dreaded Cave of the Sleeping Bears. Along the way they encounter cute British tourist girls, deadly alligators, a rampaging moose, and an Air Force fighter on a bombing range. In other words, Wild America is about as contrived as it could possibly be and still claim to be based on reality, but it is harmless enough for young viewers with its wholesome message about bravery, hard work, and family togetherness. Jonathan Taylor Thomas (from television's Home Improvement) leads the young cast of adventurers. --Jeff Shannon
i watched this movie at least once a week i loved it. This is still a great movie. I have not received this dvd yet
This movie is a great movie for the whole family, even better when you realize it's based on a true story. It's a keeper.
My sons love this movie. They are both nature lovers just like the boys in the movie. We have really enjoyed it. Lisa T
I love this movie. It's a classic...they don't make movies like these anymore. I can watch it over and over and never get tired of it. It's a great, for the most part clean movie that a family can watch. Great family movie...I'd recommend this movie to anyone!
This is a wonderful true adventure, of three young brothers,who are film makers, on a summer trip. They encounter wild animals that they film. They get right up and personal with a variety of wildlife, such as a cave of sleeping bears.
It has you on the edge of your seat, in this heart warming adventure. Where three brothers, really bond a closier relationship.
It's a great film to be enjoyed over and over again.
