Space Chimps

About This Movie

Space Chimps is kind of a quirky take on the space race, but with chimps instead of humans. The animation has a certain charm, although it feels a bit dated compared to newer stuff. The pacing can be uneven at times, but there are some solid laughs woven into the adventure. The voice performances are pretty decent; Andy Samberg and Cheryl Hines bring some fun energy. It's interesting to see how it plays with themes of bravery and exploration, all while being, well, a bit silly. It definitely doesn’t take itself too seriously, which I appreciate. Not a classic by any means, but it has its moments that might resonate if you're in the right mood.

Released in July 2008, directed by Kirk DeMicco. · Features voice work from Andy Samberg and Cheryl Hines. · Animation uses a mix of 3D CGI with some traditional techniques. · Had a modest box office run, not a huge hit but found a niche.
