As somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.

The acting in this movie is really good.

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

At first Ed seemed like it could pass for a children's movie but a caution to parents of young children, parts of this movie are rude and crude. For example, Ed and Matt LeBlancs characters sharing bathroom scenes including in your face pooping loudly on the toilet that definitely didn't add to this movie in my opinion. The baseball games are the best part of the movie with a very tan Matt LeBlanc acting goofy. The little girl acts much older than her age only because she is using adult language and I don't think that ever comes off well. The chimpanzee seems a little real at first but one can quickly see that someone is in a chimpanzee costume as the eyes look real goofy. The sounds from the chimp didn't sound real and must not have been natural-like or my dog would have gone crazy. He watches and listens for animals and he remained bored with this movie except for the dog parts. The end.

Read my one line summary. Out loud, if it helps. More than once, if you need to. Do you honestly believe that it can be spoken, and that individual retaining just a smidgen of dignity, and continue to be respected? I wish I could claim that it is the only of its kind in this. Oh, how I would love to claim that this does not deserve its low rating... as I type this, it is #82 on the Bottom 100 on the site. This is irritating and intolerable from start to finish. No, I am not the intended viewer for this, but I maintain that this isn't likely to appeal to all that many. Simply put, unless you find chimps adorable and hilarious, there's nothing in this for you. It's well-trained, I'll give 'em that. I frankly wanted Ed to go nuts and kill everyone, which may be because the last 8 days, I've watched the Halloween films. If this is for children, then what's with the numerous crude jokes that are not appropriate for them? The material is atrocious, utterly devoid of creativity and the delivery is outrageously poor. If you laugh even once during this, it will probably be a reflex, or one of the kind that comes from a desperation that you can no longer contain, that you must *express*. The lead is annoying, and every "acting performance" is horrible. Jim Caviezel? Are you kidding me? Every character is one-note and stereotypical, and that girl is ridiculously precocious. The cartoon sound effects and "goofy music" try way too hard, and it winds up being embarrassing. Editing and cinematography are unimpressive. This mess manages to squeeze in every cliché in the book. I recommend this audience-insulting crap solely to those who have no taste, or those who *have to* see for themselves how awful it is. Your movie sucks, Matt. 1/10

Awful breakout film debut for Joey -- err, Matt LeBlanc -- who has been extremely stereotyped to the degree that he is starting his own post-"Friends" show dealing with his character's ongoing trials and tribulations. How sad.This one is about a country bum who finds a monkey who can play basebally very well and helps the local team win some games. A.k.a. Air Bud: The Monkey Version.This has been done to the nth-degree. I'm tired of these sports movies. And why are they ALWAYS with animals?I can't believe Jack Warden was in this.0/5 stars.Not a laugh or amusing, original idea in sight.John Ulmer
