Action comedy starring Harvey Keitel, Mimi Rogers and Thora Birch. A lonely child in Los Angeles longs for a pet, but unfortunately her policeman stepfather is allergic to animals. Then a chance encounter with a pickpocketing monkey gives the child a new purpose in life.
A cute family film from director Franco Amurri (who made the uneven Kiefer Sutherland/Dennis Hopper comedy Flashback), this stars accomplished child actress Thora Birch (American Beauty) as the young girl who finds and adopts a capuchin monkey, unaware the creature is actually a trained pickpocket belonging to petty criminal Harvey Keitel. Quite what the hard-as-nails star of Reservoir Dogs and Bad Lieutenant is doing in this comedy adventure is anyone's guess, but his tongue-in-cheek performance will delight adults almost as much as the monkey business will enchant young children.
