At the dentist part I was hoping it would be an actually funny scene where you see a closeup of the witch-doctor's face, then it zooms out and you see he has scrubs on and it's a proper dentists office.

'there's nothing connecting any of these scenes' So this is where Batman v Superman got it's inspiration from.

"September... Very good year." Wow. That dialogue.

"Jurassic park Africa" Giraffic park

You have to give Dom Delouise credit for doing his best in every role he was given. I'd say he's the best actor here, along with the lion and the elephant.

This seems like a Mel Brooks comedy...just without Mel Brooks or the comedy.

Congratulations Cannon, you somehow managed to make Dustan Checks in look like the original Planet of the Apes by comparison to this movie.

Fuck... this one is so terrible even the review was difficult to get through; I felt the pain.

The only genuine expression in this film is all the animals giving a "WTF" look to everything!

IMDb score: 2.8/10 Too fucking generous.

I would like to note that the original books this was based on were _nothing_ like that. They actually started as a series of stories on a popular children’s magazine back in 1951, then turned into a book series that spanned several decades (1957-2014), not just one book. It was about a talking monkey, the eponymous Kofiko (from קוֹף _kof_ ‘monkey’ in Hebrew, plus _-iko_ which is the Ladino equivalent of Spanish _-ito_ even though the author was Ashkenazi) from some exotic island that somehow found its way to an average middle class family in Petakh Tikva (a city adjacent to Tel-Aviv), based on the author’s early life, and it chronicles his various shenanigans in various situations (basically every bit of mischief that was too embarrassing to attribute to an actual child). It was a classic here in Israel, it was adapted to a popular TV series in the 1990s and then got a revival in 2009 that lasted three seasons. Kofiko’s cousin Chipopo got his own book series as well, but it focused more on his works as a detective travelling the world and helping children in need. The author, Tamar Bornstein-Lazar, passed away just two days ago, at the age of 93, in the same neighbourhood she grew up in. People everywhere in the country are mourning her now.

To quote Doug Walker, "I got nothing against you Dom, but you keep showing up in terrible films!"

I imagine a Golan and Globus brainstorming session as two Tommy Wiseus clumsily transcribing the plot of whatever happens to be on their TV. The room is of course a 70's nightmare of decoration that could rival anything seen in 'The Guy From Harlem'.

13:05 Always gets me due to Brad's most genuine reaction of pure shock and anger.

"If this is making you cry... THE *FUCK* IS WRONG WITH YOU?!?" is one of my new favorite Cinema Snob moments LOL

3:13 Was I the only one that thought about Dennis Hopper saying 'Monkey!!!'?

*waves* I'm from Africa. "The True African language. Screaming a lot" Actually..... yeah. That's pretty accurate also; only foreigners call it a 'safari'.

should have added that obnoxious laughter when David falls and the credits edit lol

This movie came on tv once when I was a kid and, no joke, I cried my eyes out when they were going to leave Bonzo in Africa. I still kinda teared up watching it now... Thank you, Menahem Golan.

I think this is the angriest I've ever seen Snob.

you could probably do a year solid of animal sports films. please do a year of animal sports films.

These are my most favorite Snob episodes where he is unabashedly angry at viewing what is essentially a film that should not exist! I would compare him to the Bill Corbett-era Crow T. Robot for his similar hysterical short-fused venom and hilarious comments! Also, one of Brad's best outbursts occurs at 13:05!

Ok, now everyone who complained about "Dunston Checks In" can officially shut up!

"September, very good year" WTH movie

16:20 - Best reaction ever, Brad!

He reviews the real bad movies like this, he is less crazy, he is less whiny, he is such a snob! I LIKE HIM! He is way better then the Nostalgia critic!

Wow just wow. I don't have words for this movie........

Hey, Brad have you heard about the 4-disc Japanese 35th anniversary edition of Caligula? I thought you may like to hear about your favorite film.

*first sentence references Nukie* Oh god, what am I in for?

Well, it appears that Nukie and To Catch A Yeti fucked. Guess we should go hide in the bunker

These episodes make me so happy. thank you for making them. My Favorite internet critic!

I'll admit, I cried at 20:44 Out of fear. That ape costume is going to give me nightmares for weeks

I did think that Dom's line when he was looking at the wine was funny: "September. A very good year."

It's Harry and the Hendersons meets One Got Fat!

Dear gawd it sounds like a combination of Stitch and To Catch a Yeti!

Rule #1 of Cinema Snob reviews: if the movie takes place in Africa, the Snob will hate it more than life itself.

Still a more realistic monkey than Fant4stic.

Momba-Zomba Land sounds like a cut Banjo-Kazooie level.

The words "Bonzo loves Ben!" will haunt my dreams for years to come.

So this was Michael Crichton's inspiration for "Congo".

1 minute in and my hope for this being a "Not as bad as the Snob makes it out to be" movie is down the drain.

That just made a great start to my week. Thank-you Snob, you never disappoint.

Dear Snob, You make every Monday and the rest of my week happy. Thank you!

These videos are what keep me coming back to this site.

Wow, you know you're in for a ride when even the animals didn't want to be in the movie.

Every the monkey 'talked' I wanted to throw up. Fuck, that was creepy. Great video though, never fails to make me laugh.

Who here wants to see The Cinema Snob review Ed? I know I do...

Is it wrong that I want to know how to spell Mambazambaland/ Mambozamboland/ Mumbazumbaland/ Mombazombaland/ Mombozomboland/ Mambuhzambuhland?

Three interesting things on this movie's IMDb page: 1. No budget nor box-office figures given (I'm guessing because both are embarrassingly low). 2. France saw this released a full six months before American audiences. 3. The whole thing was shot in Africa, so it does have kinship with Nukie.

Between the creepy man-ape and actual scorpions being crushed to death, I nominate Cinema Snob to saint status for sitting through this.

"If this is making you cry, WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU?" LOL...

This is always the highlight of my week. Thanks brad

Yikes... that thing looks like Chaka from Land of the Lost had a child with that creepy bird creature from The Neverending Story 2, Nimbly. Imagining Clyde the orangutan riding a horse, flying through the air, laughing and.... talking... isn't much better though. Least Clyde had the sense to turn the thing down (poor Dom...).

"You're just asking the monkey to spray you in the face!" Didn't realize it was that kind of Cinema Snob review.

Shit,I Hoping for This week episode will be A Naked Kirk Cameron Saving a Naked Michael Myers in Naked Christmas

This shit is bananas! B-A-N-A-N-A-S

14:02 guy saw the opportunity of a lifetime and he took it without hesitation

9:04 "Even he wants Joe to shut the fuck up!"😆 10:03 "Where the hell did they get that costume?!"😆

Loving all the Golan-Globus stuff lately. I just saw Roar recently and I hope you do that one soon, as it's perhaps the most insane film I've ever seen.

Honestly, if Golan wanted to get a real simian to sign onto this film, he should've pitched it to Koko the Gorilla. At least she knows sign language!

I remember this movie as a kid. It made me cry nowadays just as much as it did back then......from the headache it caused me to watch this film!

"How did you not see that!?" Way to go, Brad, always talking about the elephant in the room.

I love ya snob. Even if I'm having a tough or a sad day, I see that little thumbnail in my subscriptions, and it's instantly a good one.

8:50 "Lom is yearning for the days where he only had to deal with Inspector Clouseau" I don't know, given how Herbert Lom's last run in with anything Clouseau related was Curse of the Pink Panther and his next would be Son of the Pink Panther, I almost feel like Herbert Lom got off kinda easy here.

He should do a Snowbuddies movie

Doesn't matter that those types of scorpions don't sting, they're still bound to scare an average kid, and they still pinch.

Another great review! Thanks, Brad!

8:05 "drill me doc" lmfao!

lol, I vaguely remember seeing this as a kid. The only scene I could recall though is when the monkey rescues the kid from scorpions. I guess the rest of the flick was so traumatic that it became a repressed memory. That voice and suit are pretty damn terrifying.

The boy in this movie is the same boy who played in in a 85-86' episode remake of the Twilight Zone TV serie's! He played in the episode Examination Day!

This was fucking hilarious...this movie is so insensitive...but hey...cinema snob ripped it a new one...lol

The one bright point that I can give this movie is that they at least didn't get an actual chimpanzee or something to play the role of Bonzo. I have zero doubts that the animal would have been abused or mistreated somehow given how little faith I have left in humanity.

And now you all know why I prefer dinosaurs and reptiles over Apes. Godzilla's progeny are never this annoying.

People on IMdB say this got a cinematic release....I'm guessing it was limited LA and NYC, maybe the grindhouses of Baltimore as well.

I was listening to an old episode of Radiodrome earlier today where you mentioned the tonal shift in The Last American Virgin.

Bartertown? Can't everyone just get Beyond Thunder Dome.

This movie really doesn't deserve having as good a soundtrack as it does.

Brad will you ever make a snob episode on God's Not Dead 2 in the future? If so that would be awesome torture.

This movie is just begging for a porno spoof.

For some reason I was half-expecting Ray Comfort to have taken part in this. Bananas _are_ his specialty, after all.

This wasn't the Cannon movie review(Death Wish 3), I wanted to see.

It took until the end of the review, but seeing the monkey jump from the dock to the ship reminded me that I did, in fact, see this movie when I was a kid. One of the few movies that Snob has done that I have seen, even if I didn't remember it.

Welcome to Africaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

this episode is pure gold! never seen Brad so angry!

I...actually remember being unfortunate enough to see this movie. Really wish I hadn't.

Your Maniacs! That was the Earth all along! Your Maniacs!

That monkey´s laugh will hunt my fucking dreams!!!

oh no, i remember this movie. i watched this when i was very young, i think i wandered off half way through to read.

17:41 What was playing? Under the Sea?

Another fantastic review snob! Always makes the day better when I know I can get in from work and watch you pick on some poor, defenceless, undeserving movies!

I wish I was lying when I said your delivery of 'that's a snake' made me literally laugh out loud ANd I rarely laugh out loud.

13:06 - my sentiments exactly. That said, this still doesn't look as bad as "Ed."

I remember hearing about this when watching a documentary about Cannon Films on Netflix.

This movie looks like a Cannon remake of an American remake of a Tramps film.

Huh... I think that kid played a kid in that Dinosaur movie with John Goodman. could sort of hear it in his "crying yelling voice" around 17 or so minutes in.

Oh, Cannon. The gift that keeps on giving.

i been looking all over for this movie!!!

20:00 No reference to Project-X with Matthew Broderick? You're off your game , Snob.

Brad is a great critic. Critics and movie reviewers gotta love that.

September. Very good year. Almost as old as I am
