Frank Marshall's old-fashioned jungle adventure Congo turned out to be a pretty solid hit back in the summer of 1995, and it still seems to have fans today, so how could it ever be overhated? Well, in this case it was those pesky film critics. (Like me, but that's not the point.) And maybe that goofball gorilla. Big thanks to "Scripts Gone Wild" host Billy Ray Brewton (@BillyRayBrewton) for suggesting this one and sitting in to defend the flick.
