I have watched this movie many times based on a novel by Michael Crichton. This film can be described as slightly strange I am still some times left thinking what I liked about the film. It has a straight forward plot It is a story of an African mountain gorilla called Amy who's been taught sign language by a young scientist and is being returned to the jungles of the Congo during which that cross paths with a research team sent in to the jungle of Africa to find a rear diamond, as you can imagine there are lots of obstacles in the African jungle. There are all types of animals one type in particular, its some kind of super gorilla.
This film has a very fictional and adventurous feel to it some of the accents leave much to be desired, the usual over emphasis an American doing an English accent! This is a very light hearted watch ...

Advantages: Great Value Disadvantages: Not great for washing hair
Tesco Congo (For Men) - 2 in 1 Hair and Body Shower Gel
**WHAT IT DOES**

One the front there is a label, which has the Tesco logo in silver and a large sign saying for men. There is bright green blobs (all different shades which looks eye ...
Advantages: Its a fun film to watch Disadvantages: Tim Curry's accent
Based on the book by Michael Crichton, Congo is the sort of film you should only watch if you're not looking for realism, but just a fun action romp for an afternoon's video viewing.
The basic story is about an expedition that goes into the jungles of Africa, supposedly to set free an ape reared by a Univerity and taught to sign. Unbeknown to the University professor and his ape is a big bad company wanting to get its hands on some priceless diamonds. When they find the diamonds they also find they are protected by a bunch of killer apes. Well, I did warn you that it was a fun action film!!!
The cast are largely unknown, apart from Ernie Hudson (Ghostbusters) and Tim Curry (Rocky Horror Show) - however, Tim Curry does indeed get the oscar for the worst ever Romanian accent on film!!!
Generally the film is OK - but if you ...
