Space Chimps

Aroview: Spirited animation adventure in which a group of monkey astronauts are sent on a wormhole mission to a supposedly uninhabited planet where they find themselves held captive and faced with an important mercy call.

Mostly colourful fun for the wee ones, this goes to town with the monkey puns, pop culture references and slapstick antics, but slips in a few surprisingly droll jokes for the grown-ups and an off-kilter take on cosmology that more than makes up for the decidedly average animation on display.
