Ape-alling!

Words can't describe how hilarious this film turned out. I did a little bit of research and found out that it cost $50 million to make this film. What a hoot! I hope that cheque was written exclusively to Tim Curry for his fee, as he was the only saving grace of this farcical.

Me and my friends spent most of the time debating where we'd seen all of the black actors before. Each one ... read more

Honestly, beforehand, I wasn't expecting much from this flick. Indeed, since I heard only bad things about this movie, I was expecting something really bad. Eventually, even though it was indeed pretty average, it was definitely not the worst movie I have ever seen. Indeed. if you don't take this movie too seriously, it is actually not completely awfull and barely enjoyable. Basically, it is an aw... read more

Amy, a gorilla who was part of a university learning experiment, is at last returning home. A professor (Dylan Walsh), electronics expert (Laura Linney, The Truman Show) guide ... (more)

Nostalgia Critic's closing thoughts (40 movies items)

"So that’s Congo. It sucks. Do you need more? The special effects are just so silly, the poor, poor storyline is laughable. The only good things in it are Bruce Campbell, Ernie Hudson and that ape-zapper thing here."

Films Roger Ebert liked that everyone else dislike (27 movies items)

" "Congo" is a splendid example of a genre no longer much in fashion, the jungle adventure story. Perhaps aware that its material was already dated when Stewart Granger made "King Solomon's Mines" in 1950, the filmmakers have cheerfully turned it into an action comedy, and the actors have gone a step further, treating it like one of those movies like "Beat the Devil" that is a put-on of itself. The result is not a movie that is very good, exactly, but it's entertaining and funny. Ebert's ratin"

Worst Movies Ever (12 movies items)

"Has some very disturbing sights in it, but overall this movie's pretty laughable. Just watch a scene on YouTube and listen to Tim Curry's accent in it if you want a good laugh."
