I enjoyed the movie “Tiny Giants," and am happy to be submitting this review, for this is my last year that I will reach the age requirements. When I first heard that I was going to get to see this movie, I was excited, but I didn’t know what I was in for. Little did I know that I was about to see the educational, tense-filled film, “Tiny Giants”.
In this film, I learned that nature is tough. For most people, when you think of nature, you think “butterflies, and happy animals!” But the movie “Tiny Giants," shows that nature isn’t quite that simple. I also learned some neat facts! Did you know that chipmunks don’t sleep entirely through their hibernation, and just like humans, they have to wake up to refill their ration? And, that there are mice that can kill scorpions called scorpion mice? I thought that one was pretty cool, because if a scorpion stings a human, they will need to get to a hospital, possibly die! However, the scorpion mice are immune to the stings.
One of my favorite features of the movie, was that the film switched back and fourth between two settings, one being the wild west desert, starring a young scorpion mouse, the other being the dangerous forest, starring a young chipmunk. I thought this was neat, because if something happened to one character, then it would switch to the other setting and you’d be left on a cliffhanger, but then get hooked into the other story until they switch again.
I very much enjoyed seeing the film “Tiny Giants,’’ and I would definitely rate it four and a half stars. There truly is such thing as a little giant.
