My son loves this movie he wanted to rent it everytime we went to Blockbuster, so I just went ahead and bought it. It is a cute story. The only rough part is hunters shooting off their guns, but it doesn't show any gore, and is pretty short. It is a cute family story with great live footage.

Set in the wilderness of Africa and featuring real animals who express themselves with human voices, Whispers follows the misadventures of an elephant calf named Whispers (Debi Derryberry) who gets separated from his mother (voiced by Anne Archer). In his desperate search to find her, he hooks up with a pessimistic pachyderm with some junk in the trunk. Her name is Groove (Angela Bassett), and in spite of her loner mindset she decides to help the little one in his plight.

I saw this movie when it aired on TV, and I found it pretty boring. However, I think kids will enjoy the story and the locations are quite beautiful. There aren't many extras on the DVD, but it's worth a look if you think you'll enjoy the scenery.

This is one of the most awesome and heartwarming movies I've seen, with a great moral to the story. I loved everything about this movie. It is educational, funny, touching, and the music is really cool. This movie is recommended for every boy and girl and also the adults who still "have a heart" and are touched by warm, good stories with a happy ending. We would "cough up water" for this movie. Watch it, better yet buy a copy, you won't regret it and your children surely won't.

Honest reviews on Whispers - An Elephant's Tale (2000)

Normally I dislike animal movies with "people" voices, but this one was a delight to watch and is really an all family movie. The filming of the elephants is excellent. Besides being a love story among the elephants, showing their great caring for one another, it graphically depicts the hideous poaching and slaughter of Africa's elephants. I wish they would promote this movie in China. That's where all the ivory is being sent.

As old as this movie is, I've only ran across it last year while watching t.v. and found it playing. As a lover of both animals and Africa, I truly loved this movie. This is not a cartoon. It is a real movie with real animals filmed in Beautiful Africa! It's a heartwarming tale of a baby elephant named Whispers who becomes seperated from his mother. He desperately tries to find her and runs upon another female adult elephant named Groove. Groove is alone too, for she is an outcast from her herd but she never wanted to have a "baby". They end up teaming up together... for she can not resist loveable Whispers.... in order to find Whisper's mother. Along the way, they run into many surprises. All the animals in this movie express themselves with real human voices. The voice of Whispers is just adorable. A great Walt Disney movie for the whole family. You experience not only a touching story but also the beauty of Africa itself. I found this movie so good, that I bought it. Very much worth the money. Great movie!
