It's the 4DK Animalympics! Round 3

Pedro, The Ape Bomb

Skill Set: Marksman, acrobat, cocktailier, chimp of many faces

Like Moti, Pedro, star of the soul-pummelingly awesome Zimbo movies, almost seems to have an unfair advantage in this competition. He's just such a prodigious talent. However, due to his self destructive nature, Pedro also faces challenges that his competitors don't. Of all of the animals featured in the Animalympics, he is far and away the most likely to find himself embroiled in a Phil Spector-like tragedy involving an ill-advised combination of alcohol and gunfoolery. Nonetheless, his light, when it shines, does so oh, so very brightly.

    I would actually kill to see Pedro and Zippy in a film together. Sigh.

    I'd worry that Pedro might eat Zippy.

    Pedro is one more tour of duty away from playing Russian Roulette in the back room of some Saigon whorehouse.

    And the only one who can save him is the razor-wielding chimp from Phenomena.

    Or, in the more upbeat, modern version, he'd be rescued by the stars of Funky Monkey and Most Valuable Primate riding in on hang gliders.

    That reminds me! Did you ever write up Funky Monkey? Why don't you have a search function here, why?

    I'd have to WATCH Funky Monkey first.

PLEASE NOTE: I do not sell, trade, upload or otherwise provide copies of the films that I review on this site, so please don’t ask.

Please, no questions about where to download films or subtitle files. If you are asking about the availability of a reviewed film on DVD, please make sure that you have first conducted a simple search of the film’s title on Google, eBay, and Amazon. That usually works for me.

Everyone else, BRING IT ON!
