    A wonderful Earth Day gift from Disneynature. Chimpanzee is touching, enjoyable, and features incredible jungle footage with the neon mushrooms and the slowed down rain fall being the highlights. Chimpanzee is a great family film that's gentle enough without watering down the bru... read moretality of the animals' lives. Overall Rating: 84

    With the recent collection of Disneynature films (African Cats, Oceans, Earth, etc.), they have added another film into the mix, which dives into the lives of chimpanzees. Can Chimpanzee carry the legacy of Disneynature's films? One thing it does well is that the cute charm of th... read moree chimpanzees might woo you in. It's one of the films main strengths, and you actually feel for the main character Oscar, and his antics throughout the film. The film is also pretty funny and has its fair share of surprising things you might notice. Tim Allen also does a good job as narrator, giving the chimpanzees character in certain situations. It is quite short at 72 minutes but the film makes use of its limited time, showcasing everything chimpanzees need to thrive and survive. Overall, a very pleasant family film, with some comedy, suspense and emotional moments thrown in.

    Enjoyed this more than the other Disney Nature film (Oceans) but this one suffers as did that one from exquisite cinematography marred by crappy script and lackluster narration. Does anyone really go to see Chimpanzee to hear Tim Allen's voice? Next time Disney needs to throw mo... read morere $ at script and less at talent. Nevertheless it was great spending 80 minutes with Oscar and the gang. (5-20-12)

    The story of Oscar and his "community" (aka family/tribe) definitely sucked me in and it's fascinating the way that Chimpanzees use tools to do things. One thing I could done less with was Tim Allen's narration, I kept picturing him as "Tim 'The Tool Man' Taylor." It's solid film... read more though if you're looking for something to take the whole family to see.

    I liked this Disneynature movie a lot. It had breathtaking cinematography, lots of humor, lots of drama, great music, narration, adventure and a touching storyline. It's one of the best nature movies I've ever seen. It will engage both kids and adults.

    I Went to Go See-Chimpanzee because Chimps are My Favorite Animal besides Golden Retrievers plus Chimps always make me Smile & They Give Me a Good Laugh plus most of The Chimpanzees always reminded Me of All of The Hyper Active Kids that I Always grew up with when I was in a Spec... read moreial Ed Class when I was in Elementry School & Middle School Classes but Overall it was a Short & Decent Documentry Narrated by Tim Allen plus It's a Film to Take The Whole Family on a Afternoon Matinee Viewing.Just Next Time just Look threw your Yearbook Pictures & Look at a Special Ed Kids now Full Grown Adults that You Grew Up with in Elementry,Middle or High School & They're Charactoristic's or there Personalitys can always Remind You of a Chimpanzee but if You have a Child in as Special Ed Class or Basic Skills just Ignore what Im Saying.

    A fascinating look at survival and the family lives of two neighboring groups of chimpanzees in the wild.

    Wasn't quite what I was expecting. I guess I was expecting more of a documentary style instead of a Hollywood cutesy narrative. But that's what it is, it's cute and it is Disney. Tim the handyman probably couldn't resist those chimps with their tools. Lots of eating and bashing o... read moref nuts. The real climax doesn't come until the movie's almost over, but it's endearing. You have to give props to the filmmakers. It's obviously a dangerous job to do what they do.
