Thank God the real talents of this film, like Sutherland, more-or-less direct themselves, otherwise “The Wild” would be too trivial to recommend (despite the terrific animation). William Shatner, taking a break from his deservedly thankless stint on “Boston Legal,” hilariously empowers Kazar, a diabolical carnivorous wildebeest-choreographer, in a nearly show-stopping display of dramatic versatility.

The Boston Legal star sold his kidney stone for $25,000 to raise money for the charity Habitat for Humanity. Captain Kirk's renal calculus was snapped up by online casino Goldenpalace.com which added the specimen to its collection of oddities, including a partially eaten sandwich thought to contain the image of the Virgin Mary.

For a new reality show called Invasion Iowa, scheduled to air on Spike TV in February, executive producers Paul Wernick and Rhett Reese (the team responsible for Joe Schmo) asked Shatner to move into Riverside with a fake entourage and crew and pretend to shoot a sci-fi movie. Townsfolk were hired for the bogus production. Throughout the eight-day shoot, Shatner...
