An average movie

11 years, 9 months ago at Aug 11 14:38
Honestly, I wasn't expecting much from this flick. Indeed, since I heard only bad things about this movie, I thought it would be something really bad. Eventually, even though it was indeed pretty average, it was definitely not the worst movie I have ever seen and I was (almost) positively surprised. In my opinion, if you don't take this movie too seriously, it is actually not completely awful and ... read more

Description: They've eluded heat-seeking missiles, gone eyeball-to-eyeball with enraged 5,000-pound hippos, hacked through a jungle curtain. Still, the expedition continues. 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 (Ernie Hudson), explorer (Tim Curry) and others follow the scampering ape. They know she will lead them to the place that's more than her home - it's the site of the fabled Lost City of Zinj and its diamond mines. But what they don't know can be fatal. Once they enter Zinj, they'll be the endangere ... (more)

Pop Culture Phenomenon Films: 90’s (1697 movies items)

" When an expedition to the African Congo ends in disaster, a new team is assembled to find out what went wrong. It’s a decidedly pretty decently average, and a cheesy one too. One of many films, based on Michael Crichton novels, critics may not have liked the film, but film goers didn’t cre, and saw it anyways. Is it a great film? No, but it’s a fun film. Nominated for multiple awards at the Golden Raspberry Awards. Including Worst Picture? Whatever. As Amy would have said “Amy go"

" TITLE OF WRITTEN WORK: Congo PUBLISHED FORMAT: novel AUTHOR/CREATOR: Michael Crichton ORIGINAL PUBLICATION YEAR: 1980 HAVE I READ: Yes NOTES: The film adaptation was just awful and this is probably my least favorite of all Crichton's novels (yes, I have read everything he's penned under his own name...next up are the pseudonym novels).    "
