The kids and I saw Animalopolis a couple of months ago and enjoyed the singing lions, waltzing bears, and sea lions that turned somersaults.  Both of the kids cracked up at times and then I would see their jaws on the floor as they watched in amazement.  Animalopolis is an IMAX film great for the entire family but I recommend that you don’t take a child four and younger if he/she is sensitive to loud noises and big screens!

Showing through March 17, 2011*

You’ll give it two paws up!

Take a playful voyage into the magical world of animals in this giant screen adventure featuring rhyming narration and a classical music soundtrack. Whether going nose to nose with hippos as they graze upon nature’s massive salad bar, or eye to eye with dancing bears, Animalopolis blends fun vignettes with interesting animal facts.

Animalopolis takes a lighthearted and imaginary look at a variety of animals including cheetahs that race like a Ferrari, bears that run their own fishing school, an operatic lion, scary crabs that hold a town hostage and even attempt to cuddle with children, and much more.

Running at 32 minutes long, this film is a great opportunity to introduce younger children to the natural world and to the IMAX® experience.
