The Wild Life Movie

Thank you to LionsGate and The Wild Life for sponsoring this post and providing prize packs. The honest opinions are my own.

Kora and Logan love going to the movies. If they could go once a week they could! Dave and I are big movie buffs as well and feel the same. We all enjoy going to a good family friendly movie and spending an evening together watching it and then discussing it later. That’s why I’m excited about The Wild Life coming to theaters September 9th and the giveaway below!

The Wild Life PosterThe Wild Life is an animated film about an outgoing parrot and his quirky animal companions on a tiny exotic island who befriend a marooned Robinson Crusoe. When their harmonious lives are disrupted by two savage cats, they discover the true power of friendship against all odds.

From the over-exuberant parrot Mak to the snack-obsessed tapir Rosie, from the persnickety echidna Epi to the acrobatic pangolin Pango, from the ditzy goat Scrubby to the commonsensical kingfisher Kiki and the always-cool chameleon Carmello, things are larger-than-life on a tropical isle that is pure wild animal paradise.

The Wild Life Mak

The Wild Life EpiThen Robinson Crusoe, a marooned human, arrives in the midst of a furious storm, and their lives are forever changed by this bewildering new “creature.” No matter their differences, castaway human and quirky animals embark on an hilarious new adventure, building the island’s first tree-house and surviving together.

But when two conniving members of the animal kingdom — the savage cats Mal & May – pounce into a battle for control of the island, Crusoe and his animal posse must uncover the true power of friendship against all odds (even savage cats).

Here’s a look at the trailer:

I love the twist of the animals viewpoint of Robinson Crusoe’s arrival. It’s so creative and very funny!

We can’t wait to see this movie and I know kids everywhere are counting down the days until it is in theaters on September 9th.

To tide them over until then here are some fun printables from The Wild Life:
