opening scene of Sav

last scene of Aliens
and the lobby scene of
the The Matrix.

thing in Conker is
protanity. The lan

children, but older people will be on the floor laughing.
As a whole package, Conker is a hilarious, great time.
Sometimes the camera angles can be awkward, but that
does not take away from the ‘Gosh, did they really say
and do that’ hilarity of Conker. (Grade: A)
