Born to Be Wild Reviews
eFilmCritic.com
Scott Weinberg
Obnoxious monkeyshines.
The Virginian-Pilot
Mal Vincent
Most of the chances for humor are downplayed in favor of a heavy-handed, sentimental effort.
Seattle Times
John Hartl
Screenwriters Paul Young and John Bunzel... can't decide whether they're making a slapstick comedy or an impassioned ecological statement or just a harmless baby-sitter...
New York Times
Stephen Holden
The film's biggest mistake is in going after the heartstrings instead of the funnybone.
Los Angeles Times
Kevin Thomas
It's a shame that the makers of "Born to Be Wild" went to such great lengths to create an absolutely convincing gorilla via technical wizardry only to waste their efforts on such a trite, predictable comedy-adventure.
Austin Chronicle
Joey O'Bryan
In the end, Born to Be Wild insults the intelligence of both children and adults, and, therefore, is worth nobody's precious time.
Deseret News (Salt Lake City)
Chris Hicks
This is not just for the very young . . . it's for the undiscriminating very young.
