grandaughter's favorite
Added 1/6/2009
I ordered this for my 10 year old grandaughter's Christmas stocking and she loved it. She had rented this movie many times,but lately the rental shop didn't have it anymore,so she was heartbroken. I looked in our stores here,but couldn't find it anywhere. Of course, I know I can always find things at Amazon. So, I was very pleased to get it in time for Christmas.

Buddy: Inspired By A True Story
Added 11/29/2008
Buddy is a story about an orphaned baby gorilla who is raised by a passionate and animal loving woman who adopts him. As the years pass, Buddy grows into an adult male gorilla.
Soon, it is time his adopted mother to make a hard choice: keep an extremely powerful and potentially dangerous silverback or send him to a zoo to live with his own kind.
Buddy is a must see movie! It isn't accurate to the the true story but it is still a great movie! Buy it, trust me you'll enjoy this great movie based on a true story.

Found it irritating
Added 7/27/2006
I thought it would be cute but it's just a crazy rich woman who indulges her love of animals by turning her home into a zoo. For some reason, instead of amusing me, it annoyed me. Dressing chimps as people and treating them like spoiled children. And she does the same with the gorilla, Buddy. She first saved Buddy but instead of using common sense, she decides to try to make it as human as possible. Of course, he turns on her later and she finds out that yes, gorillas are wild animals.
People who want to see animals in human terms annoy me sometimes. I remember once reading about a woman who was kicked in the face by a moose up in the mountains. Well, what did she think "Hey, it's Bullwinkle!" and try to pet it?
I think it also upset me because I was thinking she could have adopted children instead of making chimps into kids. But perhaps it was best she didn't. She would have messed them up by indulging their every whim.
BTW, this movie is based on a true story.
