	Congo (1995) - IMDb user comments (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		Congo is the first movie on the IMDB for which I am writing a user comment.
		Congo isn't nearly the terrible movie that many people believe it is. It isn't a movie for everybody or even a movie for most people: but it was created with a certain audience in mind, and many people are simply too serious and high-minded to belong to that audience.
		Congo and movies like it are cartoons for adults: if you don't like movies with colorful visuals, ridiculous plots and juvenile characters, you should not watch Congo.

	Congo (1995) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		Congo is about what all these sorts of flicks are about: Greed, adventure, more greed, scientific discovery, yet more greed, some ecological concerns thrown in just for good measure, and then even more greed.
		However, what is bound to disappoint most are the mundane properties of personification attributed to Amy, the precocious gorilla at the core of this adventure yarn.
		In the safari movies of old, they lamented the ever-shrinking wilderness as a metaphor for innocence lost.

	Congo
		You see, the scientist is taking Amy back to the woods where she belongs, while the con man wants to find the lost city of Solomon, and they're all led by this hip African guide who can lead them through various African revolutionary armies and explain when the local volcano is likely to erupt and.
		To make matters worse, the megalithic studios responsible for this glorious waste are supported by equally mindless, suck-up reviewers who expound the virtue of these productions with self-indulgent articles using pretentious language, much like this letter, in order to promote the film, promote their own careers, get more freebies and hand-shakes with their favorite stars.
		That's about all I remember of that movie, other than a feeling of nausea at seeing that woman's breasts floating in a bathtub while she bathed.

	Jerry Goldsmith Online Congo
		Congo, the movie, was an attempt to cash in on Crichton mania after the massive success of Jurassic Park.
		But Congo, the book was not a major success and a movie version had been talked about before back in the early eighties under the direction of Crichton himself and with Goldsmith scoring.
		Congo wasn't that well received by critics but it didn't stop it from going on to make some good international box office though.

	All-Reviews.com Movie/Video Review: Congo
		Basically, it is the story of a group of people that are hired to go after some diamonds, clean and uncut, in an area in Congo that is historical and is believed not to exist except in fairy tales, and local folklore.
		While CONGO, has its moments, it also has its drawbacks, even if, at the end a form of justice is served and done.
		Aside from that, CONGO is a well designed film, and technically well done, were it not that all these resources get wasted in the hands of someone whose direction is questionable, or the book itself just isn't good enough.

	Movie Review - Congo
		Once in the Congo, the young and unenlightened Amy, who was reared in a research laboratory, experiences her first encounter with a chameleon, huge jungle green insects and a frog.
		In one scene there is an encounter with a hippopotamus on a lake at night in which one of the safari guides is grabbed by the animal and pulled into the lake.
		Soon after the expedition enters the lost City of Zinj, they are shocked to discover that in the Congo they are the endangered species, as attack after attack comes from a rare species of killer gray gorillas.

	FILM REVIEW -- `Congo' -- Bungle in the Jungle / Killer-gorilla movie a cartoonish festival of high-tech violence
		``Congo'' had the opportunity to be something more complex, but instead it offers a moral muddle: A team of scientists and opportunists goes into the Congo with the most advanced technology available and sets about wiping out a rare species of gorilla.
		Virtually all of ``Congo'' is taken up with the expedition, which unites a group of diverse people, each of whom has a different reason for being there.
		But ``Congo'' leads to nothing but a fierce battle with the gray gorillas, a kind of guns vs. fangs scene; and a convenient and incongruous volcano eruption that looks as artificial as a video game.

	BlackNews.com - Movie Review: Congo - White King, Red Rubber, Black Death
		During his reign, he authorized the implementation of such savage measures in order to bring the indigenous people to their knees by any means necessary that over ten million Congolese had died before it was over.
		Congo: White King, Red Rubber, Black Death, directed by Peter Bate, revisits this disturbing chapter of African history in order to put the ruthless Leopold in proper perspective.
		Although often painful to watch, due to the gruesome nature of the graphically-depicted torture, Congo is another one of those long overdue myth-busters which serves to set a deceitful record straight.

		A group of scientists visits the Congo jungle in search of a lost city and a domestic ape’s ancestors, only to find the jungle holds some strange primates who have killer instincts.
		The grisly death of the first team is found in the movie, but the book mentions nothing of Dr. Karen Ross having any type of relationship with one of the original team's members.
		Congo by Michael Chrichton further shows what a great author Chrichton really is. The story is fast paced, scientifically accurate, and well researched.

	Congo . Tucson Weekly . 06-15-95
		Unlike Jurassic Park, these elements are never brought together in any engaging way, making Congo little more than a dim reminder of the tastier concoction we were served two summers ago.
		Worst of all, the movie foists upon us a cute baby ape named Amy, who wears gear that deciphers her sign language and spits it out in a cutesy voice.
		That a video game could so aptly describe a movie's plot underscores what a kid-oriented film Congo is. The bottom line is that like Stargate, the picture is cheap, noisy fun for the under-12 crowd, who won't be likely to complain about having seen it all before.

	Congo - MOVIE REVIEW - Los Angeles Times - calendarlive.com
		Under the guidance of Monroe Kelly (Ernie Hudson), who, in a typically feeble line of dialogue explains, "I'm your great white hunter, though I happen to be fl," this group is fated to encounter a bunch of apes with bad attitudes that place their plans and their lives in considerable jeopardy.
		Summarized this way, "Congo" sounds acceptable because it doesn't indicate how flabby the film's execution is. Screenwriter Shanley, a well-known playwright and an Oscar winner for "Moonstruck," must have dozed through the creation of this one, filled as it is with soggy retorts and plot points that range from preposterous to plainly incomprehensible.
		Every once in a while, "Congo" remembers it's supposed to be exciting and shovels some off-putting violence onto the screen, like having a character hit by a tossed eyeball.

		The BRIDGET JONES'S DIARY star is particularly concerned about the plight of a male nurse on the London flight, as he fears for his life on return to the republic.

		Definitely a great adventure and one of my personal favorites, Congo, brings to the screen a tale set in the African jungles involving an unlikely group that has banded together in search of a lost city and the rare diamonds that are rumored to exist there in abundance.
		I loved this movie, bought the DVD and watch it over and over the performance is so good.

		Congo is playing at Century Park (620-0750), Century Gateway (792-9000) and De Anza (745-2240) cinemas.

	Four Fat Chicks -- Congo the Movie: Descent into Zinj Review
		Congo is a film tie-in adventure game that has largely been forgotten by collectors and players.
		Congo's cursor is a hand, which gives enough info without adding any complexity to the gameplay.
		FMV sequences appear in a smallish window, which was usual for games made during this time period—probably a two-inch-square movie screen was all some of the older CPUs of the time could grind out.

	Congo Movie Review (1995) from Channel 4 Film
		A motley crew of scientists and mercenaries embark on a perilous expedition to the Congo to locate the missing son of a tycoon and a stash of priceless diamonds.
		Based on the Michael Crichton novel, Congo has all the hallmarks of a typical B-movie extravaganza: a non-A-list cast, a number of flamboyant performances, eye-raising effects and a deliciously over-the-top premise.
		Last seen deep in the African Congo looking for diamonds, Charlie's last cryptic transmission from the area contains what seem to be a pack of seriously unhappy gorillas.

		They wonder how well the movie will capture the excitement of the novel's story, or how well the actors will bring the characters to life.
		The movie wasn't a runaway success--in fact, it was panned by many critics.
		Fortunately this incarnation of an interactive Congo combines attractive graphics, good use of sound effects and music, decent actors for the video clips, and reasonable obstacles to overcome, to produce an exciting game taht will, at times, get your adrenalin flowing.

		Evans and her team have provided the radar data to scientists at the Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund in London and Rutgers University in New Jersey.
		Those researchers have constructed a map of the gorilla habitat using the JPL radar data and provided the map to the producers of "Congo" for use in the movie.
		"When the book 'Congo' was written in the early 1980s, the technology seemed very futuristic, but here we are in 1995 and this technology has become a reality," Evans said.

		Lawyers for the former US Secretary of Defence have pressured HBO to effectively remove his character from a scene in the film "Lumumba," which will be shown several times on the cable network this month.
		Lumumba's sin was that, when neither the Americans nor the United Nations would help him against Belgian-organized plots to destabilize his government, he turned to the Russians.

	congo
		Don't take me wrong however: Congo is a very funny movie, although I somehow suspect that the movie doesn't try to be intentionally funny.
		Then again, maybe not, because it's very unlikely if the movie's screenwriters wrote lines like "two more porters deserted during the night" (that portent of doom employed in many a Tarzan movie) while keeping a straight face.
		Let's be frank: this movie, along with The Ghost and the Darkness (which I also recently saw on video) are amazingly retro.
