At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.

Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

One of the best children's animation TV series ever to be created. I absolutely love this show! My favourite for sure! During the shows run (1998) I was 12 years old, a little older than the average kid that this show is aimed at but who cares, I always love to revisit this show even today (& I'm 31!) . I can't fault this show one bit - it's fun for children of all ages right up to early teens . The show centres around Eliza Thornberry (voiced by Lacey Chabert) who has the ability to talk to animals of all kinds; rats, lions tigers, bears, giraffes, hyenas, birds, monkeys, horses, you name it! Even her nearest & dearest friend; a chimpanzee named Darwin. I think it's a great show that really does have a high education level to teach children about wildlife. Each episode tells a different story filled with humour & wit & adventurous tales. For me the star of the show is Eliza's teenage troublesome sister, Debbie (voiced by Danielle Harris). There's just something about her that really amuses me, I think the voice talent by Danielle Harris is incredible & I'm very surprised she didn't gain any award from the series. But yeh she's amazing. One of TV's best animated characters. I actually met Danielle at the London Film & Comic Con a few years ago & had the pleasure of asking her how she came about to voice the character of Debbie & I'll always remember how she expressed her interest in voicing the role & that she would definitely love to do it again.Other notable voice talents which I think more of the older generation may be familiar with is Tim Curry who voices the character of Nigel Thornberry. Again, fantastic voice talent, very distinctive & well played. The show ran for 5 seasons with an additional 2 movies to follow; The Wild Thornberrys Movie & The Rugrats Go Wild. It's just a shame this show never really gained the credit it deserves cause it's a winner in my eyes & although it still gets shown on TV today (reruns) I always enjoy going back to this one . No matter how old I get it still takes me back to my 90s! Parents shouldn't definitely introduce their children to this gem of a show. You won't be disappointed!

I only saw about twelve Episodes to this show and it was pretty boring to watch. The only character I liked was Donnie because he was the only wild character in this show. Nobody else but Donnie was wild. They like show an ugly nerd named Eliza Thornberry who can talk to animals. Well big deal Dr. Dolitle can talk to animals too. I heard that Nickelodeon is going to make a movie about the Rugrats meeting the (un)wild Thornberry's. I saw the preview with Spike talking to Eliza about his pathetic life problems. I thought to myself wow :( Dr. Dolitle do something that simular for a dog (Lucky was the dog's name that Dr. Dolitle helped) once this is going to be a boring movie. The worst thing is, Nickelodeon decided to put the wild thornberrys back on the air with new but stupid-boring episodes. I wish that Nickelodeon would put like a better show then that back on the air. You know like The Ren & Stimpy Show, Aaahh! Real Monsters, Angry Beavers, Rocko's modern life, or Invader Zim. Now those are cool shows that Nickeloden should of never canceled.My rating to this show: -1,000,000,000/10

What people do not understand about this show, is that it is on Nickelodeon. Nick is a channel for CHILDREN. Usually children under the age of 12 do not care to sit and analyze the show's creativity. All they care about is a show with monkey that keeps them entertained for a half-hour.

Thornberrys is one of the best shows on nickelodeon i watch it everyday i like that it teaches you about animals and the characters are cool and very funny i especially like Eliza she's very nice and always help animals so i like everything about thornberrys.
