Congo

“Where you are the endangered species.”

Premium Crap. CrapScore 70, rated by 1 admin.

Higher CrapScores mean more entertainingly bad. How we score movies.

Why it’s crap
A jungle expedition searches for diamonds and encounters corporate plotting, a talking-gorilla interface and remarkably hostile wildlife. The serious adventure packaging can barely contain the pulpy excess, making every new logistical problem feel like another splendidly expensive bad decision.
