In ancient Egyptian mythology, a dead person's soul would be weighed against the feather of truth in a ritual called a psychostasy. If their soul was lighter than the feather, it would ascend into the afterlife. Heavy souls were devoured by Maat, eater of the dead. Good films go to hard drive heaven while the recycle bin eats the rest.

Congo (1995)
An adventure directed by Frank Marshall, starring Tim Curry and Bruce Campbell.
A group of people go to the jungles of Africa in search of many things. 2 men want to return a gorilla to the wild, a woman wants to find a friend and some diamonds and a man wants to find a lost city.
The plot and characters were decent and the style and pacing were alright. The production value was probably the only thing that was really good because of when this was released. It seemed "mass produced" in most ways, which cheapened the experience. Most people think this movie is quite good, but I'm rating it o.k. because it wasn't unique. Yeah, I can still be a hard-ass.
