great comedy for all ages

2008-09-04
Good-natured, family-oriented comedy about a clumsy ape man who lives in the jungle amongst the animals and never seems able to stop crashing into trees. During a safari, he encounters a beautiful damsel in distress (Mann) and immediately falls in love with her. Despite their differences in lifestyles, he leaves his beloved jungle and travels to the big city where he tries to win her affections and adapt to civilization. It more ways than one this inherently goofy, episodic film resembles an extended television series with zany characters and a predictable setup, but it's smart, funny, and the gags are right on target. Fraser, never more likable, is perfectly cast, aided by a sly narrator and an over-the-top Cleese who really scores as the voice of ape.

By George this movie is fun!

This movie is good, innocent fun for all ages. It has a silly bad guy, an even sillier good guy, and a monkey that talks. Very entertaining and family friendly.

George of the Jungle critique

2008-01-07
This is an excellent family film. More so, for those of us who remember the original 1960s cartoon. One of the many ways that this film works is that it has humor for the kids and for the adults.
The morality lessons are also important. The value of friendship and loyalty are the most important messages in the movie.
All in all, a fun film all around.

Campy fun

2007-05-25
This is one of those movies that doesn't take itself seriously, and can laugh at itself with you. There are a few moments when the fifth wall comes down, as in when the narrator directly interacts with the characters, or the characters address the viewer directly. Lots of slap stick. Good music. And a very buff and handsome Brendan Frasier. As others have noted, there are no extras on the DVD, just the movie. Still, it's a lot of fun to own and pop in the DVD player on those afternoons when you just need some lighthearted laughs and a storybook happy ending.

Great movie

The recurring theme of the human raised by animals of the jungle. George of the Jungle is a comic striation of that. Funny and enjoyable.
