Good actor, bad film, 12 September 1999
6/10
Author: Lynn Wright from Minneapolis MN

The movie isn't very good. The baboons are ludicrous. No one survives a fight with a regular baboon, much less a huge mutant. But Ron Perlman is a fine actor, and that made it worth watching. Another example of his talent wasted on inferior material.
