Really, really bland. Like a slightly larger budget pilot for a middling D+ TV series. Bummer. I was rooting for Anthony Mackie.

I'm sorry, if you have a movie with this premise and you open with that song you are practically begging me to hate you.

The Predator actually says "shit happens" at one point, so all the stars.

The story feels like the results of a high speed collision between two drafts, but I enjoyed the hell out of this. The plot holes are papered over by charm, and most of that is attributable to the chemistry between McConaughey and Zahn.

The basic premise of white people saving the day in Africa is problematic, but I'm willing to give a goofy adventure film a on that.

Too bad it was such a financial disaster. I'd like some more (extremely loose) adaptations of shitty Clive Cussler novels.
