9/10
A beautifully photographed, well acted film...
26 August 2001
One thing that stays in mind considering this film are the outstanding visuals. The railroad, the construction site, the various sets and outdoor locations--and the lions, the terrible lions, moving through the billowing tall grass... Very fine performance by Val Kilmer, who's always good, supporting actors generally superior... Some might fault the plot because the characters made the obvious mistakes, but they're obvious NOW, and we've all seen Jaws, and the fact is that the two very big kitties got to where they were grabbing workers off the train before someone was finally able to settle their kibble.

I consider the film two hours of very superior entertainment.
