    Certainly not a great movie by any stretch of the imagination, but there's still a lot of fun to be had here. Particularly, Ernie Hudson and Tim Curry give equally odd performances, which I really enjoyed. More of a curiosity now than anything else, but back in the day it was awesome.

    "Talking" gorilla is the highlight of the show - when brought back to the jungle, not being able to fit in as she had been communicating with humans all along. Quite a comic relief for some parts.

    Very disappointed, watched because Bruce Campbell was in it, and he dies in the first 10 minutes...the movie just went downhill from there. The scenery was beautiful, but the story seemed choppy, the acting was not bad, could have been better though if they had a better script...maybe. Ernie Hudson is a wonderful actor these b-movies seem to be his niche. All in all I would recomend it, even though they kill off Bruce.

    I like Michael Crichton novels, the ones I have read anyway. They are partly responsible for wanting to persue an education in science (which incidentally i'm not enjoying). However, this movie was very silly and not in a fun, entertaining kind of way. Laura Linney is a great actress, I don't understand why she'd do this? Maybe at the time everyone thought it would be huge and revolutionary, and some actors probably crave to star in an action movie. It was probably fun making it, but watching it was pretty awful. Also the incredibly fake Gorilla 'Amy' was a joke.

    The Worst Movie Ever! Why? Because of the 'Killing gorilla leyend', because the way things get resolved: a communication antenna results to be the perfect machine gun. Because the opportune volcano explosion. Because comic relief guys didn't make it. Because the original Michael Crichton's story about corporations and the search of diamonds get lost into african stereotypes and a crazy changos bloody orgy. And because this movie that makes me lose time before, justify to lose more time destroying it with my words here.
