GamerTab That was an excellent one.

Beystiman It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

Brennan Camacho Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.

freetom77 I was taken by storm watching this adventure, couldn't wait for the next episode, dreamt of her, was so in love. So long ago since I was 10 or 11 years old but still remembering how she made me feel. I never saw it again and I'm struggeling if i ever should or not. I thought Andie was the most beautiful actress ever and they did a great job with Das Geheimnis der Sahara. I feel a little cheated on cause now I know that I didn't hear her original voice haha

berberian00 Hi,I paid some 10 dollars for this DVD, with a duration of 360 min and a whole uncut production. However, this proved to be an Italian version of the movie with English subtitles.I don't pay tribute to such a hoax and want my money back!As for the argument of a friend of mine, that he is willing to make a recording from TV - viz., my answer is that it's worth making such an attempt in a high definition format and then transfer it to DVD in a proper studio. Further, collecting VHS tapes is old fashioned ...It so happened, that so many video information is blundered in so many incomprehensible languages. People are getting more distanced by this, instead of closing the gap ...

paul-carlier The Secret of the Sahara is the type of drama that Hollywood has long since abandoned. The story is original, the location (and sets) are breath taking and the cast is first class, with outstanding performances from Michael York as the obsessive archaeologist Desmond Jordan and Ben Kingsley as Sholomon, the Polish Jew who has found peace in the desert. David Soul provides a real sense of menace as Lieutenant Ryker and steals almost every scene from his co-stars. Andie MacDowell is slightly under used as are the other female cast members, but the director Alberto Negrin keeps the story moving along at a brisk pace, aided by a hauntingly beautiful musical score from Ennio Morricone. There are some obvious limitations to the production which are easily over looked; Ryker seems to cross the desert to the same two or three locations to dizzying effect, and some of the dialogue feels a bit out of place but these are only minor points. All in all this is a quality drama and I only wish that more of this calibre were made.

Tampopo There a many ways to make a dreadful film and Secret of the Sahara has found the secret to most of them. It is a badly plotted costume drama set in a strange Sahara populated by scores of magnificent horses, but only six camels; two very strange snakes - a fanged anaconda and a Southwest US sidewinder; a range of two dimensional characters played in some cases by talented actors; and a falcon in an oasis. Worst of all is the disjointed script. The characters do not so much interact as careen off each other. Characters disappear without further reference, characters ride off into the desert at exactly the point where they should have stayed at the oasis, and it is never clear what Jordan (Michael York) did learn. Every time a plot line establishes itself, a hole develops in it or the audience is left to wonder where it went. A great deal of talent (Kingsley, York, and McDowell) and a great deal of money is wasted in making this film. This is a film that leaves you singing the praises of the dolly grip.
