Reviews:


A straight remake of H. Rider Haggard’s “King Solomon’s Mines” that really does beggar belief! Aside from some decent location photography, this is about as action free an adventure film as I think I have ever seen. A mean and moody Sean Cameron Michael takes the title role, with Christopher Adams really pretty hammy as baddie “Hartford”; Natalie Stone pouts magnificently as “Lady Anna” with the weak and feeble, almost preppie, Daniel Bonjour (“Sir Henry”) bringing up the rear as they search for the latter man’s long lost brother “Neville” (Nick Everhart). Simply, this is an howler with virtually no redeeming features aside from being marginally less static than my television screen-saver. The dialogue and score offer little by way of a lifeline for this totally unnecessary re-versioning of a great adventure story reduced here to some posh accents, way too much chatter and hardly any actual vitality at all. There is a slight twist at the end from the book, but that really can’t make anything like enough of a difference to rescue this from then doldrums of abject mediocrity in which it belongs. I just wouldn’t bother, if I were you.

_**Grim, low-budget version of “King Solomon’s Mines” shot in South Africa**_

Needing quick cash to get his son through college, Allan Quartermain (Sean Cameron Michael) accepts a gig to help a young noble woman (Natalie Stone) & her beau (Daniel Bonjour) find her lost brother who was on an expedition to find the legendary King Solomon’s Mines in remote southeast Africa. Unfortunately for them, an evil mogul wants the map they’re using (Christopher Adamson).

“Allan Quatermain and the Temple of Skulls” (2008) was put out by The Asylum just before “Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull” debuted. The company is notorious for releasing cheap knockoffs of major releases to steal some of their thunder. The Asylum has certainly put out some cartoony dreck (e.g. “30,000 Leagues Under the Sea” and “Mega Piranha”), but they can also surprise you with some worthy low-budget stuff (e.g. “6 Guns,” “The Land That Time Forgot” and “Grimm’s Snow White”).

In other words, this movie is a mockbuster, but that doesn’t necessarily mean it HAS to suck.

The plot was taken from “King Solomon’s Mines” (1985), but it lacks the over-the-top dynamic fun of that movie, which is wildly entertaining. Instead, this is a grim tale about a small group of people searching for the fabled King Solomon’s Mines in remote South Africa and trying to survive the many challenges. On that sparse level with its low mockbuster budget & dubious F/X and fight choreographics, it can be enjoyed for what it is.

There are some highlights: It was shot entirely in scenic areas of South Africa, which is true to the Allan Quartermain mythos since his family was from Durban, South Africa; the tribal women are blatantly top nude (not that I care, but I found it realistic & daring); there’s a cool talon tool used for executions; and there are some quality story elements, like Umbopa’s arc (Wittly Jourdan).

The film runs 1 hour, 38 minutes.

GRADE: C

Oh dear Oh dear Oh dear
Just look at the poster for this movie and straight away you’ll notice the resemblance to the Indiana Jones posters, and the resemblance doesn’t stop there. This is a blatant attempt to cash in on the recent return of the superior film franchise. Its not the first time the adventures of Alan Quartermain have been used to scrape some of the profits off the top of the Spielberg movies. When the original films where released a remake of “King Solomans Mines” was rushed out shortly after with Richard Chamberlain hamming it up as Alan Qaurtermain.

Although I don’t really like the Indiana Jones movies I think its in very bad taste to copy them in order to milk some of there profits. This movie was pushed out faster than a novice skydiver on his first jump. Slapped together in under 8 weeks, and you can tell! this is a poor effort at storytelling. Sets and cinematography are quite passable but the plot has more holes than a tea bag, therefore Im not even going to mention any of the story because what you don’t know wont bother you as the kind of person who enjoys this rubbish are those with the intellectual capacity of a retarded goldfish.

I have given this film 1 star… as the IMDb wont allow me to give it none! Give this movie a wide birth at all costs!

Pathetic Indiana Jones ripoff that makes all the wrong moves w script and costuming.
Really utterly brain-bashingly pathetic. I had to shut it off when the African tribesmen showed up wearing what looked like was cobbled together using the Walmart Halloween section.

PLOT: a map is ripped in two our Indiana Jones ripoff guy has one half- drama ensues- will they find the treasure, and will someone be able to document all the pathetic inconsistencies in this movie? It could take a lifetime.

This is what Indiana Jones would have been without a script, a budget, costuming and casting.

If you paid to see this horrible piece of junk, demand your money back.
