Adventures in Zambezia review and giveaway

This has been a rough week as everyone has been ill which meant we were very grateful to be sent a copy of Adventures in Zambezia so we had something new to watch.

AdventuresinZambeziaWhen a spirited young falcon named Kai (Jeremy Suarez, TV’s “The Bernie Mac Show”) learns of Zambezia, the fabulous city of birds, he leaves his remote country home against the wishes of his father. But when his dad is captured by an evil lizard who plans to attack the city, Kai must learn the importance of teamwork if he’s to rescue his father, save his new friends and help keep Zambezia lizard free. Samuel L. Jackson, Abigail Breslin, Jeff Goldblum and Leonard Nimoy give voice to this beautifully animated fun-filled adventure the whole family will enjoy!

The DVD boasts kid-friendly extras, including the music video ”Come Fly with Me” by Jewels Jaselle and Benj Heard, as well as four featurettes. “Birds of a Feather” looks at the different birds from South Africa who inspired the film, as well as the actors who voiced the characters. “An African Story” takes a look at the story and scriptwriting process behind the film. “The Tree City” explores what it took to create and animate the Zambezia. Finally, “Technical Challenges” lets viewers discover some of the challenges of making an animated film, including designing all of the birds’ feathers.

This is a great family film which we thoroughly enjoyed watching together. I have been given two copies to giveaway, so read on if you would like the chance to win.

  1. It’s the same name as my dog – KAI
    (He’s just as spirited though looks like a cross between a husky pup and a fox as he’s a Japanese Shiba Inu!)
