Oh my gosh, I loved the book Congo! It was amazing, I hated to put it down whenever I had to. I was worried that I wouldn't like reading the book because of the scientific aspects, but since it was about animals I think that's how it held my interest. I used to like monkeys and stuff too, it's crazy how they taught them language and sign language. The whole book made me want to travel to a rainforest sometime in my life.
Now the bad part. I hated the movie Congo! It was horrible, and totally screwed up everything that happened in the book. Main aspects of the book were left out, or completely switched. In the movie the consortium didn't even exist. And the movie also added the extra character from Romania. I think I would've liked the movie if I hadn't read the book but since I did read the book, the movie just seems horrible. But when books get made into movies, the movie ends up usually being horrible in most cases anyway.
