The Ghost and the Darkness

"An interesting movie based on true events. It's a bit slow in some areas but the movie does the actual events justice on how the movie was made on trying to tell the actual story of what happened. It should be noted that the actual events happened in 1898 in East Kenya, Africa, where two lions terrorized a British railroad camp on the Tsavo River for nearly a year, killing dozens of workers.

"Not a bad watch! Very original plot (it’s somewhat of a true story about real people, I heard) i genuinely never knew what would come next- super glad it wasn’t predictable. I mainly watched this movie because it had Val Kilmer in it. Majority of the movies he plays in are very unheard of. My only complaint is the CGI of the lions are not great, I almost got dizzy from the different random angles all flashing at once. But this is a 90’s movie so it’s understandable. 6.5/10"

"Michael Douglas is the spitting image of my uncle in this great movie."

"Such a strong film - scary, tense and effective. Historical embellishment? Sure. Great edge of your seat drama? You bet."

"Fantastic movie. Val did absolutely amazing! And, might I add, wore the actual heck out of that hat."

"The movie shows man vs nature in an epic view. "

"Douglas and Kilmer at their best "

"Anything that is based on a true story and is gripping has the best story."
