Storyline:
Fifty years ago there were close to half-a-million lions in Africa. Today there are around 20,000. To make matters worse, lions, unlike elephants, which are far more numerous, have virtually no protection under government mandate or through international accords. This is the jumping-off point for a disturbing, well-researched and beautifully made cri de coeur from husband and wife team Dereck and Beverly Joubert, award-winning filmmakers from Botswana who have been Explorers-in-Residence at National Geographic for more than four years. Pointing to poaching as a primary threat while noting the lion's pride of place on the list for eco-tourists-an industry that brings in 200 billion dollars per year worldwide-the Jouberts build a solid case for both the moral duty we have to protect lions (as well as other threatened "big cats," tigers among them) and the economic sense such protection would make...

What a remarkable story and journey through the eyes of a lion. I totally enjoyed "The Last Lions", the narration and the filming was great. The story line was complete and gave a good explanation of the life of a lion. The movie is for all ages starting at the age of 10. One disclaimer, the life of wildlife can be harsh and some scenes may be tough to watch but the overall outcome of the movie is wonderful.

The Last Lions is everything you would hope it would be, and more. You just can't create these kinds of situations, they have to happen. There are lovely loving moments and heartbreaking ones also. The narration at times is a little over-the-top describing thoughts and feelings that it's impossible to know these creatures have, but it does help the story flow. The photography is amazing. It's incredible these lions will let people that close to them to photograph them. This story of a mother braving so many elements to protect her and her cubs will thrill all who enter the theater. We're so lucky films like this can find their way to cinemas. I'm so glad the film was available to go see. If you're thinking of a good family film to share with your own or even if you'd like to see how the remaining 20,000 lions out of 450,000 that once roamed the Earth are faring these days, The Last Lions is a great entry into this world.

Jaw-dropping footage, magnificent animals, and a compelling tale....all narrated by Scar. What's not to love? An important movie, because it's more beautiful than pretty...

I took my little sister to see this film because I wanted her to become more open minded when choosing movies, not always seeing Hollywood blockbusters. She was skeptical at first but immediately gained interest at the very beginning of this documentary. It had everything that a teen likes to see in a movie (suspense, blood, even got a little scary at times) BUT in a natural way. I do not condone, a pre-teen being exposed to violence, illicit behavior, or deplorable language. This documentary was free of all the above and it was one of the best movies we have seen. Also, it helped us to have a further appreciation and respect for animal life. I HIGHLY recommend this film!

The Last Lions is a story of courage and determination, therefore, it is timeless. Even though the film centers around a lioness raising and protecting her young cubs, everyone can relate to her plight. You'll laugh at the cubs friskiness and antics; you'll cry at their fate. But you will mostly cheer for the mother's cunning and bravery in outwitting her enemies. The cinematography is breathtaking and puts you in the middle of the action. The narration, done by Jeremy Irons, is another great quality of the movie. You'll want to watch it again and again. You certainly won't be bored. While this is an excellent family movie, it may not be suitable for children 6 and under due to the violence and brutality of nature.
