TheWrap - Inkoo Kang
The film boasts all the cinematic strengths we’ve come to expect from the animal-focused nonfic label... But director Mark Linfield’s film is also distinguished by its fascinating focus on the rigid but not immutable social hierarchy of the macaque world, as well as a smartly structured story of repression, rebellion, and triumph.

Variety - Andrew Barker
The eighth entry in Disney’s eco-minded Disneynature series, Monkey Kingdom may well be its cheekiest, funniest and most purely entertaining.
75
Slant Magazine - Elise Nakhnikian
The cumulative effect is cheerily life-affirming, a bracing infusion of macaque-style joie de vivre.

Movie Nation - Roger Moore
The gorgeous flora and fauna of Sri Lanka are well-represented, even as the monkey business ranges from cute to cutesy.

New York Post - Sara Stewart
On the whole, though, you couldn’t do much better than Monkey Kingdom to get kids invested in learning about, and protecting, the natural world.
