★★★

Director: Alastair Fothergill, Mark Linfield
Year: 2012

This was a very entertaining family film. The footage is incredible, just couldn’t believe how they captured such hi-res footage in the jungle until during the credits it’s shown the filmmakers were all in the jungle with the chimps, versus having remote cameras like we see in so many nature documentaries.

They did a great job setting up a story, but I was amazed at how much Disney loves telling stories about *spoiler* mother’s dying in their films. It’s in almost all of their classic films about kids growing up (Bambi, Finding Nemo, etc.) And this just proved that this indeed was a Disney film.

The kids enjoyed it and it was spectacular to see on the big screen.
