Savage Harvest (1981)~many lions!

starring Tom Skerritt, Michelle Phillips, Shawn Stevens, Arthur Malet

MTV Movies synopsis:

A drought in the savannas of Kenya provides the basis for this dramatic African adventure that centers on a family living on a failing plantation. Their lives are further endangered by a pride of starving lions. They are saved by a courageous guide.

NOTE: Check out "The Killer Shrews" (1959), which could have provided inspiration for their escape!

The Ghost & the Darkness (1996)

IMDb synopsis:

In 1896, a construction engineer from the British Army, J.H. Patterson (Val Kilmer) is sent to build a railway bridge across Uganda's Tsavo River for the British East African Railway. Soon after he arrives, workmen begin to disappear at night from their tents, never to be seen alive again. The engineer soon discovers that a pair of man-eating lions are stalking around the bridge and campsites, killing the workmen for food. He tries a number of different methods to get rid of them, but the beasts always seem to know what Patterson is doing and avoid being shot. After 30 men have been killed Patterson's boss recruits a hunter, Charles Remington (Michael Douglas) to hunt down and destroy the lions. But, the lions continue killing the workmen until they flee the camps, jumping onto the train as it rolls through Tsavo. Now Remington, Patterson and his aide (John Kani) must face these brilliant yet frightening monsters alone.

Army Wife is correct about a third film, which I haven't seen yet but recall reading about!

Prey (2007)

IMDb synopsis:

While working in a dam in Africa, the American hydraulic engineer Tom Newman (Peter Weller) brings his family to spend a couple of days in the Leopard's Rest Lodge. His 14-year-old daughter, Jessica (Carly Schroeder), is having friction with her stepmother, Amy (Bridget Moynahan), since she does not accept the divorce of her parents. The next morning, Amy, Jessica and her brother, David (Conner Dowds), go in a game drive with a ranger while Tom goes to the dam. While driving off-road, David asks the ranger to stop the jeep, and unexpectedly they are attacked by a group of starving lions which kill and eat the ranger. Amy, Jessica and David are trapped in the jeep and stalked by the wild lions. When Tom returns to the hotel and finds that his family has not returned from the game, he asks for help to the experienced hunter and guide Crawford (Jamie Bartlett) and together they seek Tom's family.

Wait! There's a fourth one, but it's not just about lions:

Roar (1981)

IMDb synopsis:

Ravening jungle beasts assemble to invade an otherwise quiet home, where they chase humans up and down stairways and from one room to another. The film took 11 years to complete and suffered every conceivable catastrophe, including maiming of actors and technicians by temperamental tigers, flood, fire, foreclosure, and a deadly disease that decimated the feline cast. Producer Noel Marshall (who was married to leading lady Tippi Hedren at the time) wrote the script, directed, and stars, along with three of their children, including Melanie Griffith, some 150 lions, leopards, tigers, cheetahs, and other big cats.
