Ripley Scott has lost his touch. Sharks in freshwater, poor animation of baboons and a ridiculous rhinoceros who goes from vicious to docile because of a handful of dirt. Denzil Washington acted as Denzil. Oliver Reed puts him to shame. Denzil loses an arm which was obviously a prosthetic and spoiled an important closing scene. Paul Mascal was no Russel Crow. Another disappointment following on from Napoleon. Ripley is presenting ridiculous farce and presenting it as drama. His "were you there" comments are and insult to your common sense and his audience.

Acting is dreadful, unconvincing and lines are badly delivered. It is taking far too long to develop the story into what the cause if the mystery is.
