Congo

A would-be blockbuster that is only notable now for its colossal waste of Laura Linney. As one member of a jungle expedition in search of a lost city full of diamonds, Linney is a bore, but that’s preferable to the over-the-top histrionics of Tim Curry and Ernie Hudson. And the less said about Dylan Walsh and his gorilla – they communicate via sign language – the better.
