C.I.Ape

C. I. APE is low-budget, straight-to-video fair that is all too common to see in places like the redbox rental machines or one of the ad supported streaming services like Tubi TV. That being said, I was actually really impressed by how the completely CGI chimpanzee looked in this. It is obviously CGI, but he looks cute! The plot is a little slow, and the actors are not recognizable, but the production quality is overall pretty good considering the budget. The lead actress looks familiar, but I am not sure if it is from seeing her on some Nickelodeon tv show or something like that. This is just a fun movie for children about a chimpanzee that is a secret agent. It has some funny gags and a nice message for kids.

Only one thing needs to be said about this master class of film and thats soon to be award winning. They havent won anything yet but thats because mobody can see the masterpiece in front of them. Better than movies like inception or avengers.

Nothing happens in this movie, they are just showing some scene to make it long enough to be a movie, but it can't be called a movie. The characters and acting is awful.

I am a professional chimp wrangler, and I know as a fact that the character in this film is not a real chimpanzee. It looks nothing like a real chimp either. This CGI abomination proves that in modern society, we value fancy gadgets and computers over good old fashioned chimp labor. The directors of this film could have taken this in a great direction, this film could have had amazing potential. There have been a stream of great chimp-based spy films and television shows, including "Lancelot Link", "Spymate", and others. But this film, unfortunately, appears to have taken more after the film "Funky Monkey", which is the worst film I have ever watched. Now this film does not bring out the murderous rage that "Funky Monkey" did, but the CGI chimp coupled with the extremely mediocre, pro-interventionist plot make this film extremely dissapointing. I just hope this will not set a precedent, and directors will continue to utilize the boundless acting skills of real chimpanzees. This film could have been so much more. Bring back the chimps.

I actually like this, i really like the humor, the story is...spy kids 1quality (do what that if you will) it really doesn't take itself seriously at all so i guess if you have kids its something you can enjoy too
