A Few Twists Make This A Fun Movie

This was a pretty entertaining comedy with a few twists added, such as a talking gorilla, which made it fun to watch. We also see an elephant act like a dog and along the way our hero (Brendan Fraser) is a likable boob. Sometimes it's just plain stupid but that's what you get with any comedy. Disney has this in the "PG" mode so we get some of the standard peeing, farting, sex jokes and innuendos, kicking people in the groin....you know, all those supposedly-hilarious gags that have become so commonplace in modern family comedies. There is enough original material in here, though, to enjoy this a couple of times.

one-joke character

George (Brendan Fraser) was lost in a plane crash in central Africa as a baby. He grows up with his animal friends talking gorilla Ape and Shep the elephant. Twenty five years later, heiress Ursula Stanhope (Leslie Mann) is on a safari. She is annoyed by the arrival of her fiancé Lyle Van de Groot (Thomas Haden Church) who is traveling with poachers Max (Greg Cruttwell) and Thor (Abraham Benrubi). George rescues Ursula from a lion and brings her back to his home. Lyle finds them and shoots George. Lyle is sent to African prison. Ursula takes George back to San Francisco. Her mother (Holland Taylor) refuses to accept the jungle man.

Brendan Fraser is essentially redoing Link from Encino Man. This is an one-joke character and he's does the one-joke great. The section I like the most is on the bridge. The rescue was fun and everybody gets to say "Watch out for that...!" The narration is reminiscent of the cartoon. The plot created around this character isn't that compelling. It can't expand beyond the animated shorts. I also think George needs to be dumber for him to be funny.
