George of the Jungle is a 1997 live-action, family-oriented, romantic-adventure-comedy film based on the characters from the original cartoon of the same name. The film was produced by Walt Disney Pictures with Mandeville Films and originally released to movie theatres on July 16, 1997. It stars Brendan Fraser as the eponymous main character, a primitive man who was raised by animals in an African jungle; Leslie Mann as his wealthy American love interest; and Thomas Haden Church as her treacherous fiancé.
A direct-to-video sequel, George of the Jungle 2, was released on DVD in 2003, however only four of the original actors returned for the sequel.
George
of the Jungle film begins with an animated introduction showing a plane
crash in which George, then an infant, is lost in a jungle in "the
Heart of Africa" (more specifically, a region called "Bukuvu"). Over 25
years later, George (Brendan Fraser) is a Tarzan-like man, the "King of
the Jungle". His friends include a sophisticated talking gorilla named
Ape (voiced by John Cleese), along with a toco toucan named Tookie, a
small capuchin monkey named Little Monkey (played by Crystal), and an
African elephant named Shep, whom he calls his "dog" (all voiced by
Frank Welker).
The live action begins as heiress Ursula Stanhope (Leslie Mann) explores
the jungle near George's home with the help of her guide, Mr. Kwame
(Richard Roundtree) and some native porters. She has traveled to Africa
alone, but she is joined by her wealthy fiancé Lyle Van De Groot (Thomas
Haden Church) who has found her with the help of Max and Thor (Greg
Cruttwell and Abraham Benrubi), two dopey poachers who are posing as
trackers. That evening, Mr. Kwame recounts the legend of the White Ape,
said to be a huge, super-strong primate who rules the surrounding
jungle.
The next day, Lyle almost causes the death of one of the porters, and he
abandons Ursula when the two of them are attacked by a lion. George
saves Ursula and takes her to his treehouse home (albeit unconscious),
and Lyle returns to the camp, claiming to have been attacked by the
White Ape. While the exploration party searches for Ursula, George
entertains her and teaches her to swing on vines. He also falls in love
with her, so Ape advises him to woo her by making faces and beating his
chest, as gorillas do. This fails to impress Ursula, but George wins her
over with his charm, and they enjoy an evening of dancing around a
campfire.
On the third day, the explorers discover George's treehouse, and Lyle
accidentally shoots George in the arm (because the porters switched his
pistol lighter for an actual gun) as George tries to prevent Max and
Thor from shooting Ape with a tranquilizer gun. Seeing this happen, both
Ape and Ursula screams in terror. While Lyle is jailed for discharging
the gun at George (and called 'a big doofus' by the narrator), Ursula
flies George to her home in San Francisco for medical treatment and buys
clothes for him, and George explores the city and saves a paraglider's
life. With George's help, Ursula finds the courage to tell her parents
that she no longer wants to marry Lyle, but her mother (Holland Taylor),
who is intent on marrying her to a man of wealth and prestige,
threatens George to give Ursula up or she would "remove his reason for
wearing a loincloth".
Meanwhile, Max and Thor (who haven't left Africa, despite being
deported) capture Ape, knowing that he can speak. Ape manages to send
Tookie to San Francisco to ask George for help. When Tookie finds
George, George returns to Africa and after realizing she loves George,
Ursula follows. George finds the poachers at the treehouse, with Ape in a
cage, and he defeats them after an extended battle, with help from
Ursula and his animal family. However, Lyle appears where he states that
he has escaped from prison and joined a cult. He kidnaps Ursula with
help from several mercenaries associated with the cult. Having been made
a minister by his cult, Lyle intends to marry himself to Ursula
immediately. After escaping the mercenaries with help from his gorilla
friends, George chases Lyle and Ursula as they float into some river
rapids on a raft, then saves Ursula while Lyle enters a dark tunnel.
After performing his wedding ceremony and exiting the tunnel, Lyle
discovers that he has just married a gorilla.
After admitting their love for each other, George and Ursula are married
in a jungle ceremony, and they eventually have a son, whom George holds
at the top of a rock outcropping in a scene derived from The Lion King.
The film ends in Las Vegas, where Ape performs a song-and-dance act
using Max and Thor as stage props.
