Title: Compared to the first one - this is pretty bad and here's why .....
Review: The first movie being ofcourse 'King Solomon's Mines' (released two years before this one in 1985 - also starring Richard Chamberlain, Sharon Stone).'Allan Quatermain and the Lost City of Gold' is rather flat compared to the first one. the problem is that the 'Lost City of Gold' is missing the all around sense of fun that was present before and is simply not as clever in its sense of humor (although in the first half it did have its moments).The second half of this movie (when they actually get to the 'Lost City of Gold') is simply awful.And there is a completely cheesy and unnecessary scene in which Allan Quatermain shoots and kills a lion. In the first movie the 'lion scene' is realistic but delightful.So, if you liked this one (hey, its possible) or if you didn't, try 'King Solomon's Mines'!!peace out-CrowTurtle
