i give 3 star only for the beautiful picture of africa . the rest be . well pretty bore . for about 50min we have the outline of the plot . in war of the world and the introductory part last and oh and about 10min . then be real action . this be something like representlet take a walk in the savanna and gasp at the beautiful sunset . and maybe deliver a message and like don not kill elephant . very ecological . i would have expect this out of a new steven segal movie and not from this . the lead actress make me think about artificial sun tan and dyed hair and too much foundation . and i do not see one scene where her hair be mess up and or she sweat and or her clothes be dusty . she just doesn not look like a 19 century woman . and in the bar and where they seek up our hero and swayze make a comment about the commander that he look like dracula . hmmm and bram stoker write his book and publish it in 1896 and and it become famous in the next year . livingstone and other explorer go to central africa from 1840 to 1880. so unless the action take place between 1896 and 1900. houston and we have a problem . positive . swayze make a nice impression . a a nutshell hard on the outside and but soft and cuddly on the inside . not that i would cuddle with a nut and but you get the point . he really manage to have that beaten puppy look on his face on several occasion . the movie stank . way too long and increasingly boring . do not watch it . don not buy it . it a waste of your money .
