Those hungering for rare footage of our cousins playing and foraging, fighting or fleeing are in for a number of treats.
Alonso Duralde
Of course, if you're a fan of old-school Disney True-Life Adventure tales like "Joker: The Amiable Ocelot," then you're used to this sort of sanitizing of the world's rougher edges.
Rafer Guzman
Walt Disney himself couldn't have scripted "Chimpanzee" any better.
Lou Lumenick
Resurrects some of the worst traits of the studio's True-Life Adventures series of the 1950s, '60s and '70s, dubiously shaping some amazing footage with cornball narration that relentlessly...
Tom Long
It's really a wonder of nature, a reminder of how we are bound to other species and how valuable and special and downright magical their lives are. It may be a bit corny at times, but it's also...
Michael O'Sullivan
One wonders whether more than a few viewers won't want to take home a baby chimp after seeing the film.

Great Movie!!! :D its a great movie!!! I love it...five stars i wish i could do more but anyway love the movie its my favorite love Oscar he's so cute!!!! :D
Great movie but why would I rent on Google play? This is a great movie! Never thought that little chimp would survive, but the turnaround is dramatic. But why would I rent from Google play? I don't think I am ever going to rent from google play again. I can't play the video through the browser of my Samsung UN46D8000 TV, I can't play it on the HP Touchpad, I can't play the movie on my desktop running Ubuntu 12.04( Firefox and Chrome). And finally I had to watch on my little Galaxy Nexus. If I had rented on Amazon, I could have watched the movie on all the above mentioned options. Great movie, but terrible watching experience for me! Maybe google should have an Samsung TV app, or an app for Webos ( impossible!) or atleast let linux users watch it on their browsers.
Good movie but... It wouldn't play on my smart tv and I don't wanna view it on my phone so I rented it from vudu & am watching it now in HDX.
Awesome I would prefer to buy this movie from Google play store. The preview looks pretty darn sweet on my nexus 7.
Chim I wish that it would have let me buy it not just rent it i would love to have this move on my nook but play store google need to updates there thing
Love it Im getting it soon it has action drama and humor best movie ever.
Iyana I always wanted to wach the movie and I get to yes yes yes
