Chimpanzee is now out on DVD and Blu-ray. In the film, Disneynature takes moviegoers deep into the forests of Africa in the tradition of Walt Disney’s True Life Adventure films. The movie introduces an adorable young chimpanzee named Oscar and his entertaining approach to life. The film chronicles the remarkable story of family bonds and individual triumph.
I know the question that is on every parent’s mind each time a Disneynature film comes out:
Is Chimpanzee appropriate for young children?
In my opinion, the answer is yes and no. I would say the movie is best for children age 6 and older but having the movie on DVD means it can really be watched by a child of any age thanks to the fastforward button! My two-year-old and four-year-old laughed out loud at many of Oscar’s antics. When the film got to an intense scene with fighting or hunting among the chimps, I simply skipped ahead to a lighter scene.
Here is one of the super cute clips from the film that little ones and parents will love (and relate to!):
Chimpanzee is available online and at retailers across the country. the DVD is packed with great extras and would be a great addition to any Disney-driven home, especially folks who home school and are looking for educational content on animal life in the wild.
