Double bill of animated sci-fi adventures. In 'Space Chimps' (2008) a multi-billion dollar Space Agency probe disappears into a wormhole and a performing circus chimpanzee named Ham III (voice of Andy Samberg) is recruited to help locate it. Unfortunately, Ham III is more interested in messing around than living up to his illustrious heritage as the grandson of the first chimp in space. However, when the peaceful inhabitants of a distant planet are threatened by an evil dictator, the mischievous chimp is forced to become a reluctant hero, with the help of his crewmates, Lt. Luna (Cheryl Hines) and their commander, Titan (Patrick Warburton). In the sequel, 'Space Chimps 2: Zartog Strikes Back' (2010), zany young chimpanzee Comet (voice of Zack Shada) longs to be taken seriously as a fully-fledged space chimp and so travels to Planet Malgor, where he befriends the cute alien Kilowatt (Laura Bailey). After a hostile alien invasion, Comet must join forces with fellow chimps Ham (Tom Kinney), Luna and Titan to save the day.

This animated seasonal family comedy is co-produced by Aardman Studios. The film shows the inner workings of the high-tech operation run at the North Pole by Santa (voiced by Jim Broadbent) and his sons, which enables them to get all the world's presents delivered in just one night. But behind this slick and efficient machine are the disparate and dysfunctional members of Santa's family, including his cranky 136-year-old father, Grandsanta (Bill Nighy), his devoted wife, Mrs Santa (Imelda Staunton), and his poles-apart sons, Steve (Hugh Laurie) and Arthur (James McAvoy).
