Critics Consensus

Space Chimps' cheap animation and overabundance of monkey puns feels especially dated in a post-Wall-E world.

It's likely that few people will ever even notice the success it might have been or the unremarkable failure it turned out to be.

This film has dirty crack house vibes. Somewhere in the world there is a child in a dirty crack house who watches this as a 2008 camrip on a burnt disc on repeat while their parents smoke crack.
