Der einzig wahre Ivan

It is an emotional story that every family can watch. Even if the screenplay is a bit weak and some characters are boring, after all is nice and interesting.

Special effects are amazing! Animals look real!

My rating is 7.

As a teen I would not recommend this film to another teen or adult. Disney is kind of just doing the same thing they always do (which they do well don't get me wrong). The book on the other hand, while geared toward younger audiences is something I could get behind anytime at all. What made the book so special was the way Applegate was able to write from the perspective of a gorilla. It was brilliant and I now realize that there was little hope of a movie being able to achieve the same thing. I watched this film because it was nominated for best visual effects this year and I was not disappointed on that front at all. Overall this is a good film to watch with a young person unfamiliar with the ways of Disney, but certainly read the book first.

Nice novie to watch witb your kids. Monkey is looking for his freedom.

Just watched this with my 8 yo girls and they (and I) loved it. Based on a true story of a gorilla that can paint, leaves you with a smile.

Disney did a good job. I really enjoyed watching it
