I love this movie and don't understand why the critics were so hard on it.

Beautiful scenery, a good story line, lots of gore, and two very realistic lions.

There is even romance in it.

Naw, it's older early 90's if I remember correct. It's got Michael Douglas and Val Kilmar in it. It's not bad for a Hollywood depiction of an actual event. Definately worth watching, after the kids are asleep.

It came out in 1996.

My best friend of old looks like Michael Douglas does in this film.

So it's a bit aged.

Yes it will scare the kiddies. I'm 40 years old and even I jumped a few times.

The real lions are on display in the Field Museum in Chicago. but the part of Michael Douglas was fictionalized no such person ..but the rest is based on a true story..

I enjoyed it.


The Edge with Anthony Hopkins is also good.
