80's movie about a guy and a chimp?

Not to sound gross but I remember a movie with a guy and a chimp and there's a scene where they are in the men's room together taking a whiz side by side and the chimp looks up at the guy and the guy says "Yeah I hear ya, Man!" I cannot remember the title of this movie for the life of me and I would like to get the dvd once I find out. If anyone could help I would be greatly appreciative :)

Part semi-realistic spy thriller, part proto 'Top Gun' meets 'Ice Station Zebra' - All Eastwood. Love it when he answers with a simple laconic "Yes, I can" when asked if he can perform increasingly impossible tasks. No self-doubt for this 80's action hero.

Saw him last night in an interview for his new Broadway show. I would love if he made some comedies again. He's so charming and naturally funny.

Got a fave 80s movie of his?

  • Running Scared (1986)
  • The Princess Bride (1987)
  • Throw Momma from the Train (1987)
  • Memories of Me (1988)

Hello!!! I'm A Member Of The Younger Generation And I love 1980s Films! For The Month Of October of 2026 I Am Planning On Rewatching The Following. These are My Top Three I Often Times Watch Last.

  • John Carpenter's The Thing (1982).
  • David Paul Cronenberg's The Fly (1986).
  • Clive Barker's Hellraiser (1987).

Why are these 80s classics in my Top Three? The make-up and practical effects are FAR and WAY superior to the modern day CGI (NOT THAT I HATE CGI OR MODERN FILMS) special effects, the storylines are creative and captivating, memorable and unique soundtracks, characters I care about and want to see succeed.
