Monkey movies are making a comeback.

This 2006 comedy about a middle-aged video game programmer who moves in with his grandma does, in fact, have a monkey in it. The primate even “drives” in the film.
As you surely assumed, Grandma’s Boy was panned by critics. The New York Times simply stated that it’s “a pathetic stoner movie.”
