Most vertical primate? More like most valuable piece of cinamatic history!
Let me start off by saying that I was a little skeptical about this movie upon first sight. I was at a local video store and I couldn't bring myself to settle on any movies that they had, until I came across this gem. I then decided to spend my hard earned 2.99 on what I thought would be an "alright" movie for my friday night. Little did I know that I was in for a thrill ride of laughter upon laughter. This is the most hilarious movie that I have ever seen in my life. The movie stars a chimp named Jack who is a natural at skateboarding. After a conflict with local school bully "Ted", Jack enters himself in the schools most awesome skateboard competition to prove to Ted who's really the man. This movie had me laughing until my sides hurt. Jack is such an awesome actor! Not to mention an all-star cast of Jaimie Foxx as "the only one who believed in Jack", and Anthony Hopkins as Teds evil skateboard coach. My favorite part of the movie is when Jack mistakes a grenade for a pear and eats it, giving him some gnarly gas. What really suprised me about the movie is the scene where Jack (yes the chimp) actually lands a "kick flip" on his skateboard. It was the craziest thing I've seen since "Cannibal Halocaust". If you want to spend the night laughing then "BUY THIS MOVIE". Upon other movies I would recemmend "3 ninjas:High noon on mega mountain", or "Ernest Goes To Alcatraz".

WARNING Not Widescreen! No matter what you order.
Regardless of what you order, you get full screen, which really pisses me off. There is no excuse for only making a full screen DVD in the 21st Century!!!

NEXT!
ok hear me out. When i heard about this movie coming out, i thought it was the same thing with only a twist. (Like how jack and his freind is drafted to a hockey team). That happens, but Jack gets thrown out of the game so fast, thats the only hockey footage they have. I thought that the monkey would kick some butt again, make a wicked-high slap-shot. But no. It's all about skateboarding. If you thought of getting this about a good hockey movie, you have better re-think it

Here we go again
another movie about chimps and skateboards. like i didn't have enough to spend my paycheck on. so this one starts off seeming pretty cool, but when you consider this is the digital age i really think they could have had the chimp doing way better tricks. also, having a chimp go from playing hockey in one movie to skateboarding in the next is ridiculous.

BEHOLD: THE GREATEST FILM OF ALL TIME
Not since Kubrick's Barry Lyndon has there been such an example of stunning filmcraft.

Wow
My brother bought this movie and I thought it was going to be cheap and corny. I was wrong. I loved it. It seems like a movie where its going to take a long time to get to the point. Not really. Great movie, especially if you like skateboarding.

Wholesome Entertainment for All
This movie was enjoyed byour family as well as many from our church family. It's nice to see a movie for kids where they don't sneak-in a few bad words (ie. s--t,h--l,d--n, etc.). There are so many kid movies that also just concentrate on having a good vs. evil theme. I'm not talking about good vs. bad. It seems like a lot of the films have down-right evil characters.
It's nice to see that the chimpanzees have so much fun playing sports. They are so athletic. It's nice to know they are well cared for and loved.

MVP 2
I found this movie to be very entertaining and fun to watch. I loved watching the chimp skateboard. I have experience with working primates and you can tell that this Chimp is having a blast skateboarding. He obviously really enjoyed his task. It is impossible to force an animal to perform with that kind of enthusiasm. I would highly recommend this movie to all of my friends with kids.

This movie is the cutest childrens movie I have seen. My daughter is 6 yrs old and she giggles and laughs all the way through the movie everytime. She watches it over and over again. You can tell when they made the movie they wanted it to be very child friendly and that the chimps are having a great time in the making of the movie. MVP the first movie is wonderful to. It is great to see a children's movie that makes kids laugh all the way through.
