How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A lighthearted romp about a talking chimp who joins a kids' hockey team, played entirely straight but with enough absurdist charm to keep adults entertained. It's the kind of 2000s family film that doesn't wink at you, just invites you to enjoy something fundamentally silly.
