Wild America feels like something the Walt Disney company produced for junior-high-classroom consumption 30 years ago.

The antic coming of age of three Arkansas brothers centers the amusing and entertaining Wild America.
Leonard Klady, Variety

The movie, ostensibly a chronicle of nature, has no patience at all for the processes of nature: It's cut like a music video, with stuff just happening really fast.
Stephen Hunter, Washington Post
Rotten
Wild America often feels like a MMMBop-ish Hanson brothers music video redone for the Discovery Channel.
