About this product

Product Information

An enormous gorilla exhibits endless compassion and courage. In his native jungle he cares for and protects an orphaned girl who later brings him to Los Angeles to save him from ruthless poachers. However, once there, the man-made confines and threats from a new set of cruel and greedy trophy-hunters cause the otherwise gentle, but misunderstood, beast to totally flip out. Remake of the black and white classic.

Great Movie
I have always liked this movie, but had it VHS. I just had to get it in DVD. This was my first introduction to Charlise Theron and I just every movies she is in. Thanks for the sale.

A Mighty Mouse of a Mighty Joe
Entertaining remake of the 1949 classic. Charlize was ok, but not great. The story is updated and somewhat plausible. Great cinematography and pretty decent SPX. A special cameo appearance of Ray Harryhausen and Terry Moore. Terry was the lead in the original and Harry did the effects. Great family fare.

Charlize at her natural best.
Charlize is such a natural talent. This film showcases what her future will bring to the screen. Great entertainment for the entire family.
