1.5/5
"consistently goes for the cheap laughs, mining way too many jokes out of puns, pratfalls, and the occasional reference to poop (these are apes, after all)"

"As bland matinee diversions go,
Chimps
isn't the worst thing to plop your child in front of, but it's hardly worth the hundreds of dollars it takes to get a family to the movie theater these days."

3/10
"Lacking forward motion, Space Chimps turns itself in circles."
PopMatters
Cynthia Fuchs
1/4
"A sexual metaphor about penises and a scene where a character is eaten by a creature and escapes death by exiting its anus is so inappropriate that the MPAA must have been asleep when they rated this G."

Dustin Putman
2.5/4
"Chimp-related puns and maxims naturally abound, as do references to such unchildlike things as rhetorical questions and NFL expansion teams, and delivered at a clip that's alternately lively and insecure."
Slant Magazine

"The film is no classic, certainly, but it's not one of those throwaway puff pieces, either."

2/4
"A real writer would have turned this in to a great animated action flick instead of animated ADD pabulum..."
Cinema Crazed

C
"Saturday morning-grade fare that young children may enjoy but anybody older than eight will find bland and utterly forgettable."

"It's talking monkeys in space. How is that not fun?"
Film School Rejects
Kevin Carr
"[S]tarts out merely a misbegotten mess... And then it all turns terrifying..."
Flick Filosopher
MaryAnn Johanson
2/4
"Given that we have a gorgeously-animated, beautifully-constructed interstellar fantasy like
Wall-E
currently in theaters, why would anybody waste their time on
Space Chimps
?"
Aisle Seat
Mike McGranaghan
B
"These astro-chimps have the right stuff."
Beliefnet
Nell Minow
4/5
"It is actually kind of funny and entertaining despite the fact that it looks and sounds as though it is anything but that."
eFilmCritic.com
Peter Sobczynski
B
"...a good addition to this summer's family movie entertainment with its meaningful messages made appealing by a solid sense of humor."
Reeling Reviews
Robin Clifford
3/10
"A decidedly disapppointing, if occasionally diverting, digitally animated feature."
