I knew of this film before it was released, having traveled to Sri Lanka this past summer for 2 weeks. One of guides for the trip was Wofgang Dittus, the founding director of the Smithsonian Primate Research Station at Polonnaruwa. We were taken into the field and walked among many of the "actors", attended lectures and learned the inside stories of the making of the film. Wolfgang has been studying these primates for over 4 decades and proved to be an essential part of the film's success. We were not disappointed.

Video and audio are great on this Blu Ray. The movie is designed to be kids friendly but does include some real issues concerning lives and struggles of these animals. Not a serious nature show for hard core in that you will probably not find any new information about these animals if you are avid Nature documentary watcher. Few moments are rare footage that not usually seen before. The show is overall an enjoyable watch. Disney Nature also contributes fund from your purchase to conservation efforts around the world. That is a nice lesson to teach young ones also.

Monkey Kingdom takes you on a memorable journey as seen from no other viewpoint. Monkey Kingdom will make you laugh. It will make you cry. But in the end, this emotional roller coaster is worth watching. A great addition to the collections for any fan of Disney, nature movies and documentaries, and of course, monkeys.

What a wonderful movie for a family movie night The people at Best Buy went above and beyond in their effort to locate this movie. It was on my daughters Christmas list. Our family loves to watch movies together and this show provided excellent entertainment for everyone.

I absolutely loved this movie! The story was very heartwarming and full of big laughs and many tender moments. The babies were soooo cute! This movie can be enjoyed by everyone--from young children to adults. There were some sad events, but they were handled very well.
