bartko-trevor I can't believe I sat through this piece of trash. The main problem I have with this film is that it's boring. I'd rather have a 2 hour lecture on Boron. The jokes are terrible and unfunny. It's very cliché and predictable. Not to mention, the characters are all stock! Who would want to watch this? I don't recommend this film to anyone. What were they thinking? Really? The first was bad... but this is a shock. If you want to watch a funny animated classic, watch a Pixar movie. So do your self a favor and don't watch it. Because you'll regret it. If your watching it you'll be asking your self "why the heck am I watching this?"

slatromhsiloof Terrible attempt to make a buck at the expense of our kids. The plot was non-existent. This story wouldn't even hold the attention of a small child. I kept waiting for something to happen, but it never did. Recycled lowbrow attempts at humor typical of what Hollywood thinks our kids need. Turn on the TV and watch re-runs of "The Flintstones" instead, or better yet, take them to the park. This DVD is only suitable for target practice. I wonder how much money was wasted on this thing that could have went to feeding starving orphans. I give it 12 thumbs down. This movie is a canker sore on the lip of humanity. I would rather have genital warts than watch this thing again. The kids actually got up and left before it was halfway through and went to do their homework. Pass on this unless you think gastrointestinal distress is a screaming good time. Forget it, pass on it even then. You have been warned.

geoffgee This is quite plainly aimed at a very young audience and as such I think succeeds reasonably well. The story is imaginative and, though somewhat improbable, does make logical sense and all loose ends are eventually tied up. A few scientifically accurate astronomical details are included which should (hopefully) encourage youngsters towards furthering their knowledge of such wonders. Dialogue is clearly voiced and the humour is, I think, capable of being understood by most typical six or seven year olds. There was a family with three or four very young children sitting two rows behind me and the film seemed to hold their interest throughout. I think this is a worthy sequel to Space Chimps 1 (which I also think was under-appreciated) and deserves a higher rating than it is getting so far. Ideal for entertaining young kids (and for introducing them to a bit of science) and sufficiently wittily scripted for accompanying adults who haven't completely lost contact with their inner child.

Neil Welch Space Chimps 2 is, unsurprisingly, a sequel to Space Chimps, which is a CGI feature from a couple of years ago.Frankly, I'm surprised that the original was successful enough to warrant a sequel. And it's a sequel which brings nothing new to the table. The animation barely passes muster for TV kids' CGI shows, and is no improvement on its predecessor. Compared to what we are used to from Pixar and Dreamworks it is, quite frankly, not good enough. The story is paltry. The characterisation is limp. The 3D adds nothing.On the positive side, it is bright and colourful and sufficiently amusing in the simplest of ways to please small children, and perhaps that is the basis on which it should be judged. Because it falls far, far short on any other basis.
