Born To Be Wild
When your best friend is a 400-pound gorilla, where do you go to set her free? Anywhere she likes!
Here, there and everywhere else she wants to be is Katie, a hilarious playful three-year-old gorilla who knows how to communicate using sign language. But what makes her more special to 14-year-old Rick (Wil Horneff) is that she's his friend. So when Katie is reclaimed by her former owner (Peter Boyle) and penned up as a flea market attraction, Rick unlocks the cage and hits the road with his 400-pound pal!
Pursued from California to Canada, the two share narrow escapes and wide-open excitement. Through it all, Katie - whether she's spraying Rick with soda or scarfing down burgers - is having big fun on the run! After all, adventure comes naturally when you're Born to be Wild.

One of my favorites growing up despite the fact that the gorilla was just someone dressed up. This is one of those movies I'm very fond of and brings back good memories. I find that its hard to find good teen movies like this these days. Unlike movies now, the story doesn't just focus on sex, drugs and popularity. Its a journy of discovery and it really warms the heart.
I recommend this movie to anyone who likes a little adventure, drama and friendship. I'm sure even teens today would enjoy it as I did back in the day.
