It's not that terrible...

But you have to like drive in movies (as I do). It's drive in style fantasy adventure. It's not to be compared to a flossy expensive CGI'd version. You're supposed to park your brains and just enjoy it. The scenery was beautiful, David McCallum was very young (and oddly, looks much the same still on NCIS) and Patrick Macnee has always been a treasure. Park your Chevy, pick up a trough of popcorn and enjoy.

Oh Brother... two stars at best!

(2 out of 5 stars)

"This movie was hilarious! Not because it was a comedy, but because of the terrible mishaps of a low-budget film. Several times the background moved because someone jarred the backdrop, oh and those "dinosaurs!" And for such well known actors (many are in the 007 movies), I was appauled at the acting, maybe because they were quite young when this movie first came out (1977). Apparently they didn't practice their parts in advance, or the directing was bad. And the ending, well, after all that work to get there, and all they had been through, no one even TRIED to get the treasure? There were so many places that this movie could have been improved. So I only rated this with two stars. Only worth getting if you like to giggle over the older classics, with fake scenery, stiff clay animals, and old style acting. Also, could easily have a Quatermain cult following."
