Dom DeLuise
Big Bad Joe Hopkins
An evil circus owner chases a chimp and his friends through Africa. Not necessarily 'Dyn-O-Mite!', but this silly monkey business is decent family fun.

A ridiculous romp that requires one suspend all critical thinking to be enjoyed. My eight year old self would have loved this if he could get past the wildlife experts repeatedly referring to the ape as a monkey. The most intelligent character in this ridiculous movie is the man in the ape suit. In spite of this movie's strange blend of awfulness and absurdity, I kept watching it to the end. I doubt I'll watch it again.
