Space Monkeys 2

SPACE MONKEYS 2By: TRONOLONE
The Monkeys make an emphatic return in their second movie. This time Vari, James, Tobias and Herraiz have a clear mission in mind: ‘to explode the progressive kiteboarding envelope.’ Michael Caine once famously said, “You were only supposed to blow the bloody doors off!” Well, they didn’t listen to him either. The journey begins with the boys getting tubed up to their nuts in Mauritius and some ‘secret’ Pacific island locations, and the film develops in a comic book meets spoof documentary kind of way. It’s hip hop, it’s rock, it’s hard, it’s soft, it’s ground-breaking and revolutionary... with a delicate overlay of semi-naked chicks sprinkled throughout. It’s epic carnage meets soulful beauty, and it’s not exclusively wave-riding either - there’s a fair helping of the boys laying down the latest freestyle tricks too. DVD of the year? I should coco.
