Space Chimps 2: Zartog Strikes Back is a fun 3D computer-animated movie from 2010. It is a direct-to-video film, meaning it was released straight to DVD and Blu-ray, not in cinemas in the United States. This movie is the second part of the Space Chimps series.

John H. Williams directed and produced the film. Rob Moreland wrote the story. Many actors from the first movie came back to voice their characters. These include Zack Shada, Carlos Alazraqui, Cheryl Hines, Patrick Warburton, Stanley Tucci, Patrick Breen, Omid Abtahi, and Jane Lynch. Some new voices joined the cast too, like Tom Kenny, John DiMaggio, and Laura Bailey.

The movie first came out in cinemas in the United Kingdom on May 28, 2010. Later, it was released on video in the United States on October 5, 2010. 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment distributed the film.

What Happens in the Movie

This movie takes place two years after the first Space Chimps film. Comet (Zack Shada) is a smart young chimp who loves technology. He really wants to be seen as a real space chimp. But Ham (Tom Kenny), Luna (Cheryl Hines), and the other chimps do not take him seriously.

Comet finds out he could not go on the last space mission. This was because of budget cuts. He then plans to go on the very next mission. Comet plays with the controls on a rocket. He accidentally blasts the ship off into space!

Eventually, Comet lands on Planet Malgor. There, he meets Ham’s alien friend, Kilowatt (Laura Bailey). This is their first time meeting. Comet also earns the respect of the aliens living on Malgor.

Meanwhile, back on Earth, Zartog (John DiMaggio) is up to no good. Zartog is the evil alien from the first movie. He sneaks into NASA headquarters. He takes over Mission Control using a special remote. This remote can make objects disappear! Zartog zaps three scientists: Dr. Bob (Patrick Breen), Dr. Jagu (Omid Abtahi), and Dr. Poole (Jane Lynch). They vanish into thin air.

Zartog wants to get revenge on Ham. Ham stopped his plans in the first movie. Zartog then meets Titan (Patrick Warburton), who does not know what is going on. Titan gives Zartog a tour of Mission Control.

Comet and Kilowatt return to Earth. Ham tries to get away from Zartog. He rides on a jetpack to escape. While Zartog is busy, Comet manages to steal the remote. He then reprograms it. This brings the scientists back! It also shrinks Zartog down to a tiny size. Zartog escapes while everyone else laughs. The movie ends with Zartog running away from a dog he had bothered earlier.
