Sahara Reviews

| Original Score: 3/5 | Apr 1, 2006

Pity, because McConaughey is born to play Pitt. Whether his shirt is on or off (personally I prefer the later) the actor cuts a dashing figure.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Apr 23, 2005

Just don't go expecting complex moral and ethical quandaries and you'll likely never think of Ishtar even once.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Apr 23, 2005

Despite the vast beauty of location settings in Morocco and Spain, the vast lack of chemistry between the two stars is appalling.

Full Review | Apr 14, 2005

Sahara is many things, but it is not a movie. It is the skull-splitting cacophony of 21 producers and four screenwriters (that we know about, anyway) standing in the same room shouting into their cell phones.

Pitt seems to get by entirely on dumb ideas and reckless luck. In the end, he's an action hero in name only.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Apr 12, 2005

It drove me crazy. It made National Treasure look like a documentary.

| Original Score: C | Apr 9, 2005

McConaughey's no Harrison Ford. And no one cracks the whip of originality.

| Apr 8, 2005

A mediocrity wrapped inside a banality, toasted in a nice, fresh cliche.

| Apr 8, 2005

Unlike Raiders of the Lost Ark, which this movie wants so desperately to be, there's nothing here to engage the brain along with the eyeballs.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Apr 8, 2005

Entertaining but flawed popcorn fare.

Full Review | Original Score: 2.5/4 | Apr 8, 2005

This one has everything: stereotyped characters, shaky camera work, absurdly inappropriate pop songs on the soundtrack, a confused tone, misplaced zaniness and a nonsensical story.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Apr 8, 2005

The one-liners, mostly bland, are used so liberally that they water down the action.

Eisner is not remotely up to the challenge. Spending millions on action scenes does not mean you get them right.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/4 | Apr 8, 2005

It's about good ol' boys on a rip-snorting adventure, and to that end, it succeeds.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Apr 8, 2005

McConaughey and his co-stars make the case that fun, however fleeting, is still fun.

Full Review | Original Score: 2.5/4 | Apr 8, 2005

Whatever it lacks in substance it makes up for in gloss, humor and thrills, and a good time should be had by all.

| Apr 8, 2005

Good-natured enough to entertain here and there, but that otherwise loses its way long before the characters complete their implausible quest.

| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Apr 8, 2005

I enjoyed this movie on its own dumb level, which must mean (I am forced to conclude) in my own dumb way.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Apr 8, 2005
