i never have an inkling while watch the movie that it be mean for the idiot box . i always think that this be some very good successful movie of the late 90 . but after i saw on the internet that this be mean for the tv and i be shock because for a television film and it be absolutely fantastic . the thing that mostly concern me be the length . i felt that the one on one battle scene should have be remove a it be completely unnecessary . also and it begin to drag towards the end a it seem a if the adventure be never go to end . on the plus side and there be a strong and very interesting and captivate plot with magnificent performance by everyone . i just felt that patrik frayze look a bit haggard . i also felt that gogool and who look dementing turn a bit stupid at some scene . i be delight by the beautiful landscape of africa . also and the first half of the movie would have make me give this movie a 9. still and it a great film for the television . positive .
