It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.
View MoreIt's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional
View MoreIt’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.
View MoreVery good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.
View MoreI first must note special interest: I do not like 'comedies' in which animals are mistreated for the audience's amusement: Jules White & Zion Meyers' DOGVILLE series for MGM fills me with horror. But chimpanzees are human enough and social enough that using them as performers does not disturb me and I have some fond members of the Marquis Chimps on television when I was a child.With that in mind, we can comment on this particular Snooky the Humanzee movie in which he plays a farmhand. He goes through the standard Chimp Act, putting on human clothes and so forth, but this time the story is filled out with some good gags -- the early one about milking a cow is nicely handled -- and some adult comedians doing some bone-breaking slapstick competently. Although I am no fan of this series, this is the best of them I have seen.
