Friendship is the point. The lion's hunger is the interesting fear. A light family film.

The review
A lion in a zoo believes he is a friend who likes steak brought on a plate. The island tells him he is a predator. The film is mostly a joke, and the joke is good when it stays on that fear: that you might harm the people you love because of what you are, and that love means warning them.
A child can watch it. The dancing is the advertisement. The moment he sends them away is the story. If they have seen it four times, they have seen it enough.

Live Historic number 44. Yours can differ.
The glance
Industry and Piety and Republic are the thin ones.
Does anyone here do a real job, and does that job matter?
This phone is set for a grown person, just me. Change the ages.
Consider this
Sing
56 instead of 44
Sing is still a animation film, and it scores 56 instead of 44. What you gain is industry: Rehearsal, a payroll, a building.
The eight
- 3Industry
They have been provided for. The wild asks them to feed themselves, and they cannot.
- 6Household
Four friends refuse to leave each other, including the one who might eat them.
- 2Piety
No creed. The wild is a punch line and then a fact.
- 5Courage
He tells them to go when he cannot trust his own hunger.
- 3Republic
A zoo is a comfortable regime. The island is not yet a people.
- 5Temperance
The jokes are silly and not mean, mostly.
- 6Truth
It tells the truth that comfort can be a cage, and that a nature is not a costume.
- 5Stewardship
What they keep is the friendship, even when nature makes it hard.
