* TookTheBadFilmSeriously: Creator/DylanWalsh is pretty much the ''only'' actor for whom this is the case - as can be seen in HamAndCheese above, ''everybody else'' knew exactly what kind of film they were making and acted accordingly.

** A special mention should go to Creator/ErnieHudson, who is clearly having fun and aware that the film is being filmed like a comedy (despite the plot being not), yet also gives all to make Munro look cool, and succeeds.

* MisaimedMarketing: This is a PG-13 movie that features gruesome-looking gorillas tearing people apart and crushing their skulls. It had a toyline courtesy of Kenner, complete with toy versions of said gruesome-looking gorillas. There's also its Taco Bell tie-in.

* SugarWiki/NoProblemWithLicensedGames: Both the UsefulNotes/SegaSaturn FirstPersonShooter and the PC AdventureGame were met with mostly positive reception from critics and players alike. The [[Pinball/{{Congo}} pinball machine]] is also well-regarded, with the biggest complaint being that it was a good game done in by a bad license.

* SugarWiki/NoProblemWithLicensedGames: Both the UsefulNotes/SegaSaturn FirstPersonShooter and the PC AdventureGame were met with mostly positive reception from critics and players alike. The Saturn game in particular is a BroadStrokes adaptation that keeps the basics (finding diamonds in the jungle while fighting killer gorillas) while not using any of the less popular aspects; in many ways it's a spiritual precursor to ''VideoGame/FarCry2'' (you even start by needing to find malaria medication). The [[Pinball/{{Congo}} pinball machine]] is also well-regarded, with the biggest complaint being that it was a good game done in by a bad license.

* WhatDoYouMeanItsForKids: Well, the movie is rated PG-13, so it’s not exactly for kids[[labelnote:note]] Kenner toyline notwhistanding, see above[[/labelnote]] , but there’s a suprising amount of blood and gore. Especially glaring since [[Film/MortalKombat Mortal Kombat]] was released that same year, infamously also had a PG-13 rating and yet it was nowhere near as bloody as this.

If it was a success, it didn’t alienate audiences. Also you can’t subvert YMMV tropes.

* AudienceAlienatingPremise: The concept of a movie that stars a ''talking gorilla '' was definitely not going to win a lot of people over. Nevertheless, [[SubvertedTrope the movie was a hit at the box-office.]]

** The movie’s main theme [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iIGiHxklK38 “(Feel) The Spirit of Africa”]] sets the mood right from the get-go with its tribal drums and chanting. Really makes you wonder why the Hell the Razzies nominated it for Worst Song.
