Congo Book vs Movie
Congo by Michel Crichton was an extraordinary book as well as a movie about a group of scientists taking a journey into the heart of Africa in search of the black diamonds, in the lost city of Zinj! While being observed back in the U.S. over satellite camera, the whole team dies within a matter of seconds by some unknown being. The scientists back home sent out a second team (Karen as the leader) to find the others and to pick up where they had started! There was only one problem with this plan, however. However, there where no flights going to this part of Africa in the next month. They then came across a group of scientists that where taking a sign language talking gorilla named Amy. They where going to the same spot because they thought that this is where Amy was born, and she keeps on having nightmares about this place. They team looking for the diamonds asked them to go because the gorilla team needed more money, which Karen could provide. Once the other team had gotten into the plane and on there way to Africa, they started being attacked by another country because they where crossing over there border with out there permission. They where forced to jump out of the airplane with Amy, to l
The very next day they realized that Amy had run away after the attack, but could not stop to look for her. Peter realized that Amy was always having nightmares of her watching her own mother be killed by these gorillas! She would always make finger paintings back home of something with a yellow eye. While Karen was crying over the diamonds Amy and Peter where looking around the city while Amy was signing “Amy scared, Bad Place, Amy not like. They only attacked at night because they all slept during the day while it was light out. But in the book he still cared about the diamonds but he didn’t even have a son, at least not in the business, and certainly not dead in Africa!Compare and ContrastPlotIn the story, when they arrived at jungle, they where fine until night where they attacked by mutant gorillas. He really turned out to be a fake in search for the diamonds to become rich. They had not been cleaned out at all! All of the diamonds where left and abandoned, never bothered. They started to fire at them making them flee away! The next day they found the found the mines that the diamonds where in. They all realized that they had to get out of there that day and never return. They thought they where all ready! That night they heard the same rustling in the brush but when they turned on the goggles and the views they saw NOTHING! Nothing was coming up in there view at all. If I had to choose which version of Congo was better I would have to say that the book is much better. Compare and ContrastCharactersAmy, in the book, had a talent to talk in sign language so any one who knew how to read it could communicate through her. At the every end Karen and Peter got away in hot air balloon WITH OUT Amy. They discovered them with in a temple where they would rest during the day. Once they reached Zinj, they found that it sat on the top of a great volcano, but they had also discovered what had killed the others! They seemed to be a mutant form of a gorilla, with gray hair and mutated face with incredible intelligence.
