Ape for Congo!

Congo (1995)
<><>

Starring: Dylan Walsh, Shirley Jones Directed by: Frank Marshal Rating: PG-13 Genre: Action & Adventure Other

Review What if you went to Africa and found a world in which the very laws of nature have gone berserk? That's the intriguing premise of this action masterpiece based on Eric Segal's bestselling novel. Director Marshal finds a way to get at the tough nut that Planet of the Apes was unable crack - namely that apes should never ever act as metaphors for human beings. They're apes! Beautiful Shirley Jones seems ageless as a scientist who risks it all for the man she loves. DVD extras are equally spectacular - including documentary on computer-generated ape hair -- if only!
