Project X Summary
MPAA Rating: PG
Director: Jonathan Kaplan
Genres: Comedy Drama
Rating:
Project X is a top-secret government undertaking involving trained chimpanzees. Grounded pilot Matthew_Broderick, assigned to teach the chimps how to operate a flight simulator, discovers that his charges are to be subjected to high levels of radiation to test potential human endurance. Risking a court martial, Broderick links up with Helen_Hunt, the researcher who has taught the chimps sign language, to save the simians from destruction. The serious subtext of Project X is forgotten during a Disneyesque comic finale, wherein the lovable chimps nearly trigger a nuclear meltdown! Without taking anything away from human stars Matthew_Broderick and Helen_Hunt, we must note that the most engaging performance in Project X is delivered by Willie the Chimp, who essays the challenging role of Virgil the Chimp.
