There are some things as a kid that you can't forget. Completely white gorillas and laser guns are one of those things that are permanently engraved in my mind. What must have been forgotten somewhere in that span of time was the acting. Do you think we are going to look back on the movies of today and ask ourselves what we were thinking? When I watched Congo as a kid, I thought it was great. I didn't seem to notice the bad acting, cheesy one-liners and ridiculous action. Maybe I was just oblivious having been so enamored with attacking gorillas and the prospect of fending them off. "Amy...good gorilla." Congo, no good movie. If only Crichton had written more Jurassic Park books. Then we wouldn't have had to suffer through Jurassic Park III.

Congo : C- (only because it still has a special place in the heart)
