Boring and disjointed
After watching this, I could not sleep. Idris fighting a Lion probaby made with power point. The story from his ex to his kids and the dodgy uncle kept mixing up.
Complete waste of time.
You need to watch Ghost and the Darkness. I think there is no better Lion movie than that.
I mean going for a walk outside when the Rabid lion is about. Also looking for car keys in the dark was hilarious, even the Lion was bemused.
Then also the poacher story didn't add up.
Not sure if this movie was made in the jungle or studio but very disappointed.
Watch this movie when you are with lots of friends so you can have a good laugh. - t4art - 2 May 2024
Not Big Movie but nice
I watched this movie recently, it's a movie about a struggle for survival with a family touch about the father-son relationship.
I liked the long single scene style in many of the scenes in the movie and sometimes there are scenes with a lot of detail.
It wasn't a strong but enjoyable movie for an evening, and I don't think I'll be watching it again in the future.
The soundtrack is mediocre, the visual effects are rather good, and the acting performance I find mediocre from an exceptional actor like Idris Elba.
The duration of the movie is quite sufficient for the story and you don't need to know other details about the characters.
I wish there was more depth and drama around the characters and the fishermen and not just a passing mention.
