Following the mothballing of a secret US Government Experiment, an incompetent Janitor, Walter, accidentally unleashes a platoon of military trained – and very angry - monkeys from an animal containment lab run by the sadistic Dr. Orkenstein. Mayhem ensues and soon Walter and a platoon of elite soldiers sent in to control the situation, are in a race for their lives against an enemy that really is superior in every way.

EVERYTHING is better with monkeys. Give them guns, and I'm hoping the Academy gives then an Oscar for Best Screenplay.

Sounds crazy, but its better than most of the shit Hollywood is making now. Can't wait!
