Watch: Project Nim 2011 123movies, Full Movie Online – From the Oscar-winning team behind MAN ON WIRE comes the story of Nim, the chimpanzee who in the 1970s became the focus of a landmark experiment which aimed to show that an ape could learn to communicate with language if raised and nurtured like a human child. Following Nim’s extraordinary journey through human society, and the enduring impact he makes on the people he meets along the way, the film is an unflinching and unsentimental biography of an animal we tried to make human. What we learn about his true nature – and indeed our own – is comic, revealing and profoundly unsettling..

Incredibly depressing
Ostensibly a documentary about the world’s most famous chimpanzee, who was taught to communicate with humans via sign language during a university experiment of the 1970s, PROJECT NIM is in fact about human failings. It’s another nature-themed documentary that, along with the likes of BLACKFISH and THE COVE, makes you despair for mankind.

The story starts out well, with the impossibly cute baby chimp brought up as a human. Soon, though, the behaviour of some of the “scientists” looking after Nim begins to grate; some of them are a little too involved with their subject, while others are plain creepy. Later, Nim suffers a huge betrayal, and at this point the documentary takes a downward turn into one of the most depressing ever.

Hardly a heartwarming story then, in that it focuses on misery and despair for the majority of the running time, but nevertheless an important story that serves to highlight man’s inhumanity towards the world he inhabits.

Great movie – sad people…
Great documentary.

I have been looking forward to watching this documentary for a while and expected a feel-good “human and primate interaction” story.

This is nothing like that at all and is quite disturbing and sad. After watching this movie I ended up hating the human participants involved in the life of Nim so much that it (almost) spoiled the whole movie experience for me.

You have a bunch of self righteous hippy (pseudo) scientists participating in a “cool” new experiment with no thought about the consequences to the animal involved.

One feels sad after watching Project Nim and I personally wished for a dreadful/sad ending to the pathetic Stephanie La Farge and “prof” Herb Terrace while watching this (never happened) – Stephanie (who initially raised Nim) seemed more interested in having intercourse with poor NIM than anything else…!

Great movie – sad people.
