“Penelope” is a unique coming-of-age about a 16-year-old girl doing what we all dream of doing… when we’re twelve. Who didn’t think of running away and living off the land, giving our parents the big, ‘I don’t need you to survive!’ finger on the way out the door at some point? But we get to a time in our lives when we realize we’re wrong and move on from childish dreams.
“Bad Monkey” is based on the novel of the same name, written by Carl Hiassen. It’s a comedic crime thriller, as is the show, which… has a great soundtrack! The title says a lot. It should say a severely underused monkey and a somewhat bad show, but okay, I won’t be that harsh. It’s just not enough of cute Crystal the Monkey from “Hangover 2” and “Night at the Museum” and more of the same from Vince Vaughn, who plays Andrew Yancy.
