About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a gentle, story-driven nature watch with beautiful scenery and animal behavior, similar to Bears or Penguins; Not for you if you prefer strictly factual, low-narration documentaries.
Pros: gorgeous scenery and wildlife; engaging family-friendly story; glimpses of monkey society | Cons: narration feels childish; pop music distracting; some scenes feel staged
