Review of The Last Lions (2011) by Conjure — 22 Aug 2015

I know that most animal documentaries are also sad but this one got to.

Me towards the end with Ma di Tau and her precious little daughter. I.

Still think about the face of the little cub.

This documentary is fantastic. Great scenery and puts you in the.

Predicament of our lions. I highly recommend watching it.

One thing really got to me. It was a review by MANOHLA DARGIS of the NY.

Times. Did this women watch the movie or just have an agenda?

She says "Within the first 20 minutes of "The Last Lions" one adult.

Lion dies in a ferocious on-screen fight .." Then in the next paragraph.

She says "First, her old man splits...".

Well, if Manohla actually watched the movie rather than looking at it.

She should have known that the adult lion who died was her mate.

Fighting for her and the cubs to protect their territory. He did not.

Split. He fought and gave up his life for the family. That is a helluva difference Manohla.

And Ma di Tau and her cubs did not "lose their home in a fire." They were forced out by the new pride that came in and took over their territory. The fire was an impediment to their escape. Geez woman get the facts right.
