Critic Reviews for Link
All Critics (7) | Top Critics (1) | Fresh (2) | Rotten (5) | DVD (2)
Mike Malloy's camera abets by offering, at appropriate moments, an ape's-eye view of the world.
Given Hollywood's sketchy record with monkey movies, Link compares relatively well and rates as moderately successful.
Audience Reviews for Link
Unfortunately it's never as creepy as the poster, but it does come close. Link sees Elisabeth Shue take a job minding Stamp's cottage where 3 apes live. An elderly domineering female, a youngling hat can communicate via a computer, and an old geezer dressed as a butler. The latter, known as Link, soon becomes a bit obsessed with his new female house guest. Mysterious goings on soon give way to extended chase scenes. It gets a bit tiresome as you'd think some competent person could take out an orangutan in this situation. The ape that plays Link is incredible. His facial expressions put the human cast to shame, and it looks like he does a lot of his own physical scenes. Enjoyable, and sometimes creepy, it can also drag on in places.
Super Reviewer
It's sort of like a prequel to Sunset Blvd. One of the most unusual creature features I've ever seen.
