Mega Ape

This movie is great for the laughs. Some clips were recorded in excellent quality, while others look they were recorded on an old cell phone. It appears that the actors were instructed to overact, which adds to the comedic factor. Also the graphics for the ape are pretty bad, (as in the effects for the first Mortal Kombat movie). The music may be the best part of the movie, or the cast of random people who only serve the purpose of being lunch for the ape. Some parts of the movie had me scratching my head (not as an ape), but out of confusion. I would watch it again with someone who has not seen it, just to laugh at their reactions. Definitely worth a watch.

"Mega Ape" (2023) is a movie like no other that will leave you scratching your head, wondering why this movie was ever made in the first place. Director Dark Infinity (aka Dustin Ferguson from Amityville in the Hood) makes yet another iconic 'masterpiece' with terrible CGI, editing, sound, acting - the list is endless. There's some underacting from performers like Tom Sizemore (RIP) and Mel Novak, whereas there's some over the top acting by Bai Ling and Erik Russo. If you love iconic bad movies then this is for you. However if you're easily insulted by bad moviemaking then I would walk away from this. Story doesn't have much to offer neither.

This has to be a joke! There is no way it't not. The bad acting, poor film skill, and terrible writing make this movie almost impossible to watch. About 1/4th of this movie is credits. Another 1/4th is drone shots. It is speculated that the budge to make this movie was $35, and the purpose was to cause pain with the, poor CGI, wide angle and awkward scenes. I give this a 2/10 because there is a difference between bad being incompetent, and bad on purpose. And this just barely scrapes over the line.

The best part: The Ape Burlesque dance.

The best line: "No monkey business" - Sir Ranger Rodger.

This was one of the most difficult things I've ever watched right from all the credits at the beginning of the movie like they used to do in the '80s and the soundtrack which was obviously from the 80s and the footage of the Apes looks like it was some after school special on National Geographic in the mid-1980s who pays to fund something as terrible as this it's crazy I can make a better movie with my phone. Tom. Sizemore and Bai Ling are respected actors I don't know how the hell they ended up in this whoever greenlit this project and financed it should be fired from the industry all together this was so bad.

This 'film' - it is, when titles, and filler shots are taken out, less than an hour long - is completely wretched. The acting is dreadful, the effects would be considered unacceptable 20 years ago, the cinematography is risible. There is not one redeeming feature to this film - even the cover is wrong, with the 'ape' being a chimp, rather than the advertised gorilla. Bizarre that films this terrible can be released whilst $90m budget films are canned in post production as tax write offs. It makes even Asylum productions look like masterpieces. Save yourself an hour of your life - I have suffered through this crap so you won't have to. 1/10 purely because zero isn't an option on IMDb.
