Wild America (1997)

Wild America is a film without a purpose. It tells a story no one wanted to see. Based on true events, it opens in 1967 and tells the story of Marshall Stouffer (Jonathan Taylor Thomas) and his brothers Mark (Devon Sawa) and Marty (Scott Bairstow) who would eventually become great nature documentarians.

This is one of the worst family movies I've seen in a long time. I won’t pretend to know what happened behind the scenes or what the film's pitch was like but the goal had to be something like this: Wild America is a nature documentary show that played on PBS from 1982 to 1994. It was insanely popular. Now let's tell everyone what inspired the prolific documentarians. The brand recognition combined with the popular teen actors should equal a license to print money... in this case, a lot of $3 bills.

No aspect of this film is convincing. The comedic and adventurous tone means everyone in the film is a cartoon. I doubt the Stouffer's first wilderness trip included nearly getting blown up while in the middle of a military weapons testing ground or nearly getting eaten while discovering a mythical cave filled with bears. The tone and characters' actions are all over the place and several developments will leave you utterly bewildered.

You would think that because the title is Wild America and it’s telling us how the Stouffer brothers began as filmmakers that this picture would focus on nature and wildlife. Instead, the attention is given to wild antics. It isn't interested in the majesty of the flora and fauna of North America, nearly as much as people getting attacked by moose and loudly screaming while holding onto their antlers for dear life.

You won't be able to stand anyone in the film. The three heroes are bland and immature. Their only redeeming quality is their inexplicable luck when it comes to accidentally capturing footage of animals. Their father (Jamey Sheridan) is a jerk who deliberately attempts to crush their dreams like an empty can of cheap beer. We get some one-dimensional bullies thrown in for kicks. Everyone else is a comedic sketch or bizarrely out of place. Bet you'd never expect a group of nude hippies or a lady Two-Face in here but just wait. With a lame-brained story that consists of the boys falling into one situation where they get an awesome shot of animals after another and then a cheesy plot about father/son bonding, its only hope is decent cinematography and animal footage. Instead, how about some awful special effects? It’s easy to tell the animatronic animal heads (and there are many) from the real deal and several prolonged shots of what is clearly a man in a phony bear costume pretending to be roaring while stock sounds play gave me flashbacks to Meet the Spartans. I would've been laughing if the barrage of anti-comedy hadn’t sucked every last chuckle out of my body.

It’s an adventure movie that’s badly written and populated with characters you dislike, it's predictable, cheap, and even includes a couple of bad performances to round it off nicely. As the end credits began to roll, I had a glimpse of hope. Next to the list of sinners who partook in this effort is actual footage shot for the Wild America TV series. I was excited... until I realized I was watching a Full-screen VHS. To allow the image to fit, everything is squashed. Now the credits are illegible and the wildlife footage is but a ghost of what it must've looked like in real life. Aside from a couple of shots where the mountains, forests, and rivers look good, there's nothing to like about Wild America. (Full-screen version on VHS, April 30, 2015)

I nostri prossimi sogni...

Sebbene per il viaggio in Scozia di questa estate siamo in stato organizzativo, il resto degli obiettivi sono in realtà dei sogni che speriamo di realizzare nell'ordine posto in in ordine sparso, che tanto non ha importanza.

La Scozia è una terra di gente fiera, generosa e con una forte identità collettiva. Un paese misterioso e affascinante pieno di storia e di tormenti. Un posto che si finisce per amare inesorabilmente

La Lapponia è dove hanno resistito culture lontane dalle nostre e dove le asperità del pianeta non hanno piegato gente laboriosa e audace. Viene definito il posto dove vive Babbo Natale ma soprattutto è uno dei luoghi dove è possibile venire travolti dalla meraviglia dall'Aurora Boreale

Ci sono alcuni luoghi del nostro pianeta che possono essere terribili e crudeli tanto quanto di una bellezza disarmante. Davanti alle sculture viventi della natura e delle forze naturali bisogna inchinarsi, portare rispetto e rendere omaggio.

la Wild America: scenari visti e rivisti che sono diventati in qualche modo familiari e che hanno influenzato il nostro immaginario. Un vero On The Road nella parte selvaggia e meravigliosa degli USA

L'intramontabile fascino dell'oriente che incontra i confini dell'Africa. Il Marocco suscita in noi un infinito fascino al quale non riusciamo a resistere.

Un viaggio in auto con diverse tappe per raggiungerer lo Stretto di Gibilterra.

Fresh grizzly tracks! When in bear country we walked along talking loudly, singing, clapping and playing word games to make sure bears could hear us from a distance and move away. The only real danger is if you walk quietly and then surprise a bear being too close to it. #wildamerica #americanroadtrip #ontheroad #nationalparks #neverstopexploring #adventure #wildandfree #mountainlife #travel #wanderlust #yellowstone #skyrim #wyoming #lifeofadventure
