RobNYNY1957 The plot is terrible derivative, trite, racist, though there are some nice chests, both male and female. I really don't understand how movies like this get made? Who are the producers?Who are the intended audience?Every cliché? Yes, every cliché. Except that no on gets kicked in the nuts.Were they given a chance to make a good movie? Yes, this has been filmed a few times, and all they had to do was copy what was done better before.I'm pretty certain that the actors in this movie could go on to have good careers are organ donors.

Matt matt Ho HO! This film is crawling to it's death on cable even as I type.I had to come here and find what people were saying about this stillborn turd of a movie. I gotta tell you, the reviews are the best part of the viewing experience. Even the two good ones are so obviously self serving they might have been written by the director's mother.I won't rehash what so many others have already said. Every criticism is spot on and should be accepted as fact.It's as if someone said, "The problem with the Indiana Jones movies is that they rely too much on action, personalities, spectacle, and special effects, so I won't put any of that in my film!" I can imagine how the film was so badly made, but I have one complaint that I have never thought to make of ANY movie, no matter it's budget or terribleness.The woman who plays the 'romantic interest' in this film is probably the least convincing seductress ever to appear in a movie. This slightly doughy mouth breather made me question my sexual orientation, as I have never in my life been so unmoved by a feminine presence on screen. I'm not one to demand classic beauty from any woman, and indeed have lusted greatly after some pretty odd looking ducks from the days of direct to VHS creepitude, but this woman...GOD! Is she the money man's sister? "You told me I could be in your MOVIE! MOMMMM!" I'm sorry if you bought this hospital food as adventure flick, because you got it on DVD. A few years ago, you could have taped over it and gotten a little return on your investment.But as it is, enjoy the bad reviews.I know I did!

Thomas Fasulo Not just Allan Quatermain, but anyone who would watch this movie has to be out of their skull. This was such a terrible movie that I wanted to walk out of the theater and go home. The problem was I was already home, watching it on a DVD.There were so many things wrong with this movie that it would be impossible to list them all, but I'll give you a few examples.How about going off for a hiking expedition without taking any supplies, not even water or food. They didn't even carry canteens. All the bad guy, who was after them, had was a rifle and pistol and the clothes on his back - but no hat. I thought it got hot in Africa? No one was sweating. I know this because the leading lady's heavy eye makeup never ran.How can the bad guy take out two crew members of a moving train with two shots but never hit Quatermain even when Quatermain is standing still or is only a few yards away. This happens several times in the movie.And where did the earthquake come from? Just thrown in for good measure, was it? And when was the last time you explored a dark cavern without any lights? If Quartermain took the job to get the tuition money for his son and then gave it to his housekeeper to mail, what happened to the envelope when the housekeeper went on the trip with him.At least they didn't have any trouble finding the unknown land where King Solomon's mines were, as a wide dirt road had been created for them to follow. The bad guy had a truck, so why did Quatermain and his party have to walk on the road? Since his house is in the country, you would think he would have a vehicle too.I have watched many movies where the actors had to walk to get where they were going. I'm surprised that Quatermain's party ever got anywhere. I have never seen people move this slow. I walk faster inside my own house.And what was that terrible flying swarm? Bloodsucking locusts? Day flying bats? Enraged hummingbirds? Would have been nice to know.I could go on, but why? So I'll sum it up.No plot. No character development. No one with any acting ability. On a scale of 1 to 10, I'd give it a -3.

pianzola This is the worst Movie I ever have seen in my hole life. Its not only boring and annoying, its also bad and full of wooden acting. Stupid dialogs and ridiculous stunts mixed with endless scenes where the characters walking trough Africa on a safari without any gear or supplies!!!?!? Watching grass grow is more interesting then watching this movie. I felt asleep several times but I am sure, I didn't miss a plot, cause there is nothing, absolutely nothing. The shooting scenes are so unprofessional and childish, but I am sure, even kids on a playground could play a more convincing shooting. Its a shame, some movie like this is for sale in a store. There should be a warning: Don't buy it, don't rent it, just forget it !
