SparkMore n my opinion it was a great movie with some interesting elements, even though having some plot holes and the ending probably was just too messy and crammed together, but still fun to watch and not your casual movie that is similar to all other ones.

John Seal This Henry Hathaway-directed jungle adventure was well past its sell-by date in 1967, and now plays like some bizarro parallel universe cinematic representation of Africa: even the baldly propagandistic South African films of the '70s and '80s were based in a firmer reality than The Last Safari! Stewart Granger plays Miles Gilchrist, an old-fashioned great white hunter bemoaning the arrival of snotty rich tourists who are sullying the sport of kings (shooting animals). The tourists are personified by Casey (charisma-free Kaz Garas), a crude and brash American who wants to go on a great adventure with Miles. Personality clashes ensue, but not before Casey plays chicken with a rhino and spends an evening in a night club listening to a very strange musical act, which seems to consist of Masai tribesmen playing a blend of western jazz and Afrobeat. At least their music is better than John Dankworth's miserably dull score. The only watchable element of this colonialist fantasy is beautiful Gabriella Licudi as the worldly young woman who accompanies Casey on his adventures.

bkoganbing Stewart Granger got so many good notices for King Solomon's Mines and Harry Black and the Tiger that I guess Henry Hathaway and Paramount decided to cash in on one more trip.Granger was at a financial crunch at this part of his life and he'd work in just about anything. He had just done several years of European westerns.Well The Last Safari isn't even close to King Solomon's Mines or Harry Black and the Tiger. Poor Granger, he looks like he's sleepwalking through the safari.And for reasons I can't understand Kaz Garas got top billing in his first feature film. Did Granger lose a bet to someone at Paramount because I can't figure that out at all.Garas has had a successful career as a character actor, do in no part to his performance here. He's just plain obnoxious, a kind of early version of Donald Trump. Garas is so annoying in his portrayal of a young American tycoon that the film is close to being unwatchable.Granger was not particularly crazy about a lot of his films and this is definitely one that was inflicted instead of released to the movie going public.

dbdumonteil ...whose filmography includes such treasures as "lives of a Bengal Lancer" "Peter Ibbetson" " Niagara" ,the underrated "legend of the lost" and more.This one is anaemic,even Stewart Granger does not believe in what he is playing,being sullen,indifferent, barely infuriated by millionaire Casey's whims .The plot is a run of the mill confrontation experienced grumpy old hunter / young mindless rookie who wants to go with him on a safari(check the title).A bubble head girl accompanies the freshman :the prize goes to the scene when the young brunette realizes dancing with the natives can be dangerous .The beautiful African landscapes are nicely filmed but they do not really need these raiders of the lost elephant.

Mike-754 Adapted from GILLIGAN'S LAST ELEPHANT, this is a somewhat-above-average adventure film, starring Stewart Granger in his familiar role as a white hunter. What makes the movie memorable is the character of Kaz Garas, a brash, wealthy American who just happens to be right about the direction Africa is (and should be) going, while Granger and all the other Noble White Hunters are dead wrong.
