Space Chimps (81 min)
Synopsis: Ham III is the grandson of Ham, the first-ever chimp astronaut. This ne'er-do-well chimp may not be the most qualified ape for the job, but a scheming senator has recruited him for a most dangerous mission. It seems that a powerful tyrant has overtaken an alien world, and now it's up to Ham III and his trusty simian crew to help overthrow the deep-space despot. Perhaps with some training from Ham III's mentor and the help of a friendly alien, this fearless group of anthropoids can make the universe a safer place for aliens and humans alike.
