Reviews

Chicago Sun-Times - Roger Ebert
The result is not a movie that is very good, exactly, but it's entertaining and funny.
50
ReelViews - James Berardinelli
This is easily the worst filmed version of anything penned by the prolific author.
40
The New York Times - Elvis Mitchell
This glib, overheated film about vicious primates delivers little suspense, nor are there signs of the 65 cited volumes and articles that turned Mr. Crichton's book into such a learning experience.
40
Washington Post - Hal Hinson
Even with these high-end artists on the team, though, the movie seems thin.
30
Washington Post - Desson Thomson
As if aware that Congo is the least interesting adventure ever filmed, screenwriter John Patrick Shanley (who once wrote a funny movie called "Moonstruck") tries to inoculate the activities with humor.
