Amazon.com: This is a terrible movie. Frank Marshall (Arachnophobia) demonstrates no control over story, actors, effects, or general presentation in this adaptation of a Michael Crichton novel about an expedition into deep, dark Africa that runs into an unknown race of killer apes. The big monkeys attack and attack and attack and have to be fought off with machine guns and lasers--that's pretty much the story, except there's probably an even better one behind "fourth Ghostbuster" Ernie Hudson's bizarre decision to speak with a British accent. While Marshall wants us to root for the human characters, they're all so obnoxious and unbelievable you can't help but feel lousy for the poor apes when they get chopped to bits just for defending their homes against these twerps. If you're not feeling enough environmentalist ire these days, watch this and get angry. --Tom Keogh

Not all Michael Crichton inspired movies can match up to Jurassic Park, but what they can offer is a fun adventure.
"Congo" is a very fun movie with some stand out performances by Tim Curry, Ernie Hudson and Delroy Lindo. It's closer in tone to the Indiana Jones movies than anything else, with it's search for treasure, battles in exotic locations and humerous one-liners.
Some stand-out scenes are:
-Ernie Hudson's intro to himself as Monroe Kelley "I'll be your ... Read More

Herkermer Homolka (Tim Curry) has been looking for the Lost City of Zinj. He is contemplating picking up a few souvenirs when he finds it. Seems that the only one that has been there is Amy (Misty Rosas). However Amy needs to go home. Her buddy and mentor is economically taped out. So they all team up with a Dr. Karen Ross (Laura Linney) who just happens to be going in that direction and can afford the travel arrangements. While Karen thinks she is going to save fellow explorer, her boss also has a nefarious ... Read More

This film story-wise isn't that great or particularly interesting. It has its moments though, especially with Tim Curry in it. I enjoy Laura Linney's work alot so I certainly don't mind watching this film a few more times if just to watch her. I suppose its mildly entertaining, in parts, though the ending was a bit stupid and completely unrealistic.

As soon as I mentioned that I'd watched this to someone I work with, I was immediately met with the response: "Oh God, I hate that movie!"
Zuh?!
How can anybody hate this movie? Were we watching a different movie? Hello? OK, yes, undoubtedly there is a woman inside the costume that was Amy, and the acting does have its slightly dodgy moments. And it's based on a Michael Crichton novel, who apparently can do no wrong (my Dad has some of his novels, but can't remember reading this) and ... Read More

Everybody say CONGO is a film about scientists find killer gorillas in th rain forest. This is true, but before we get to the psycho monkeys, we have to sit trough hostile militants, the Hungry Hungry Hippos in their cruel retirement, and guys who just get this occasional urge to shoot planes out of the sky with seeker rockets that thwarted with flare guns. The killer gorillas show up in the first five minutes to kill Bruce Campbell (dang you monkeys!) and disappear until the last twenty minutes or so. And this ... Read More
