Plot

[edit]

In the vast forests of India, a female tiger named Ambar has recently birthed an unusually large litter of four cubs. She will need to feed and protect her cubs for months before they can eat solid foods or hunt on their own. She will also need to hunt for meat to keep up her milk supply, leaving her cubs alone at times. The cubs are in regular danger from other predators, including the king of the forest, male tiger Shankar. Through it all, Ambar navigates her environment and Shankar, as the cubs grow to full size.

Production

Priyanka Chopra served as the narrator of Disneynature's documentary about tigers.[1][2] Mark Linfield and Vanessa Berlowitz, the directing duo of Disneynature's film Elephant (2020), directed and produced the film for producer Roy Conli.[1] Nitin Sawhney composed the film's score.[3][4]

Release

[edit]

Tiger was released as a Disney+ exclusive on Earth Day April 22, 2024.[3][5]

Reception

[edit]

On the review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes, the film holds an approval rating of 88%, based on 8 reviews, with an average rating of 5.8/10.[6]

Jennifer Green of Common Sense Media rated the film 4 out of 5 stars, praised the film for its wonderment and natural beauty, stating "it humanized their subjects and setting their daily actions to evocative music for easier understanding. For example, when mama tiger Ambar finds two cubs missing, Chopra Jonas tells us how she must be feeling as a melancholy tune plays in the background".[7] John Serba of Decider gave a positive review, summarizing that "if you're not into watching tiger cubs wrestling and chasing monkeys up trees, you're probably a serial killer".[8]
