Rating: Summary: GREAT MOVIE Review: The Ghost and the Darkness is by far the best movie that Val Kilmer has done in a long time. Its a great suspenseful adventure based on a true story and is if anything...highly original. I greatly enjoyed this movie. It is one of the best I have seen in a long time! Highly recommended!
Rating: Summary: One of The Best Movies Iv Ever Seen Review: This is one of the best movies I have Ever Seen.Exlent story line and it was based on a true story. There is no better movie with this story line and the fact it was a true story.
Rating: Summary: Scared the You-Know-What Out of Me Review: Unlike those films classified as "horror," this one is made the more frightening by the fact that it is based on real-life events in Africa. The two lions that savagely terrorized workers during the construction of an essential bridge are pictured as savage, killing machines.Michael Douglas is quite good in his role as the big game hunter while Val Kilmer makes the most as the beleagured architect. John Kani as a native interpretor and bridge builder does an outstanding acting job, also. There are three truly frightening scenes: one involving Kilmer's wife; another at the lions' lair where their victims' bones are discovered; and the final battle between man and beast. Truly, a memorable adventure will worth taking.
Rating: Summary: Great movie Review: My brother has this movie on VHS (widescreen) and it is wonderful. The scenery is beautiful. The movie is action packed with a good story (based on a true story) and the acting is great as well. I liked this movie so much that I ordered the DVD version for myself and I can not wait to watch it again. I highly recommend this movie.
Rating: Summary: Big Game Safari or how we used to hunt for Lions Review: ".. once we had a farm .." is the beginning of another great movie about africa. Everyone who liked the scenery there is going to love the beautifull pictures out of the african-"bush". This compared with a lot of hunting scenes makes it a good and very entertaining movie. The story is easy to tell, back at the time of english-east-africa the british railway company wants to built the railway through the wilderness but two lions -such called the ghost and the darkness - come by allmost every day and night to eat the workers. They are triing to hunt them if .. I won't tell. Negative: The movie is rated "R" here but in Europe it can be seen by every child at the Age of twelfe, which equals to "PG" - there isn't more blood, hunting or action than at the news every night.
Rating: Summary: Dark and Dangerous Review: This big fella's got some teeth. Hand it to history (albeit questionable Tinseltown history) to turn up a succulent tale of two ferocious African lions and what they had for dinner. Even stoical Val Kilmer breaks a sweat. His stiff-lipped Patterson is a bridge builder and he's just landed a plum assignment to hoist the lumber on the dark continent. But once railway workers started getting graphically greased by the kings of the beasts, there's little choice but to call in a pro. Michael Douglas plays Remington like a wild-eyed hombre who's quite a few steaks short of a barbecue. By the looks of it everyone had a good time. I know I did. G&D is an explosive bloodfest of snaggle-toothed suspense. Eat your heart out Lion King.
Rating: Summary: Thrilling! Review: A very good movie, i liked it and the acting was great. But most of why i liked it was because of the music. I liked it and i recommend it to anyone who likes to sit back and watch a good movie.
Rating: Summary: Best Action Movie I've seen in a while Review: This movie was one of the best action films I've seen. It's right up there with Indiana Jones in my opinion. The acting of Micheal Douglas and Val Kilmer was superb. They worked very well together. It had everything, action, adventure, terror, drama, comedy and tragedy. Very show. I recommend it to anyone who loves action.
Rating: Summary: An incredible action picture! Review: Val Kilmer and Michael Douglas are incredible as two adventures that team up to kill two lions that are hunting for the sport. I honestly don't believe that lions hunt for sport, and in reality it's the FEMALES who do the hunting! This is a truly interesting and exciting picture!
Rating: Summary: Great Action Movie -- One of the Best Review: I don't know why this movie didn't make a ton of money when it was in the theatres. I thought the acting and cinematography were terrific, along with William Goldman's very literate script. Really edge-of-the-seat type suspense that kept me entranced. I can't wait to see the DVD version (which I've just ordered).
