The_Light_Triton I can't really say whether i wanna blast this movie to pieces or to congratulate it for giving me a bad image of police when i was 5 years old. every time i see a cop now, i think back to this film and think every cop is bad. thats sad, really. if the news won't brainwash your 5 year old child into thinking cops are the bad guys, then this movie will.It's another one of those animal/teenager friendship films. you might consider it the flipper or gentle giant of it's time, but it might also compare to movies like Free Willy and Andre.I give it 5/10...and a big slap to the face for giving me a permanent bad image of cops that I shall never forget.

EraserheadDr I watched this film about when it came out, maybe a year later. But this film fits in with the other family films by warner brothers like, "The Amazing Panda Adventure" and "Free Willy". This film is my favorite family film in the mid 90's.The story is about a teenager named Rick Heller who meets a gorilla that his mother's experimenting on, and he starts to notice that she can communicate with the gorilla. So, the real owner of the gorilla takes her away, and Rick wants to see her again and setting her free by the Canadian border.So Rick steals her from a flea market and escapes with the gorilla. Rick is now a suspect and is being careful not to get caught. The rest of the story is just brilliant. You gotta watch this film if you like family films.But the ending really sad and great at the same time. I expected more comments on this film, but I suppose it isn't that great of film back then, but I will sure remember it.

MovieAddict2016 Simply awful. Stunning. A man in a gorilla suit makes friends with a troublemaking teen who learns to love the gorilla and tries to free it. "Free Willy" meets "Larger Than Life," only it's worse than both put together (or subtracted from each other). John Billingsley ("Out of Time") has a small role.0/5.

Vegita I know that most of this movie is fake but you have to understand that the plot is nice and it really wakes people up to animal cruelty. After reading Congo, by Michael Crichton, I just had to watch this movie once more and I'm glad I did. Most people think that gorrillas are just huge beasts who'll kill anything that gets in their way. On the contrary, chimpanzees are even more ferocious than gorrillas and will eat human children in the wild. That gives you something to think about when you watch this movie, which I really recommend
