Quotes
Leo: Earth Mother!
Mother: Leo, it's been so long.
Leo: Earth Mother, is there a problem on the mountain?
Mother: I'm afraid so. There's less and less food growing on Mount Moon these days. There's very little left to eat. I came to take some food back. It warms my heart to see all of you doing so well. I know it's hard work protecting the jungle all by yourself, but you need to believe in yourself to lead them. Their all in your care, Leo.

This was a great finish of the 1966 Kimba TV show!

If you liked the 1966 "Kimba the White Lion" you will LOVE this movie. VERY WELL DONE, not another cheap knockoff!!! The animation work is even better than the original.

When you see this movie, you will wonder what the TV series would have been like with a big budget! Based loosely on some of the 1966 story lines and some new ones.

You do miss the voices of 1966 crew but this crew did a very good job. Again, the voice over work in this movie is much better than any of the KIMBA KNOCK OFFS that have turned up through the years.

If you have not seen the ORIGINAL 1966 KIMBA THE WHITE LION TV series, this would be a good movie to introduce you to the main characters. The names have changed but the personalities remain much the same, and as with the original the hero doesn't always win!
