PRIMATE DIRECTIVE Smart simians monkey around in orbit in the decidedly sub-Pixar animated adventure Space Chimps
Presented by Moviefone

Credits

Release Date: Jul 18, 2008; Rated: G; Length: 81 Minutes; Genres: Animation, Comedy, Kids & Family; With: Andy Samberg

Three brainy chimpanzees are sent on an intergalactic test flight by scientists too daft to realize the primates are actually smarter than they are. What starts as a simian spin on The Right Stuff becomes a monkey-brained space odyssey as the apes fight to save an alien world from a despot who looks like the love child of a Teletubby and the monster from Cloverfield. While candy-colored graphics should dazzle kids, Space Chimps has little draw for audiences spoiled by the Pixar-given knowledge that CGI can entertain — and not just stupefy — moviegoers of any age.
