A different way of telling a story
Stoutor
It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.

Paul takes his young daughter and mistress to a wild adventure in the desert to see the surroundings and observe different animal behavior. For some reason they must separate from Tally in order to reunite again later but Paul falls as a prey to a sort of hunters who he sees them taking the fangs from a rhinoceros. Fortunately Josie escapes unharmed and she is found by Tally but now the two must run from those who hunt them.Well, it was a good way to spend an hour and a half although the story is quite sad. I still like it and having in mind that it doesn't contain violence to the animals, is bearable. The action is little is more like a cat and mouse type we see more running then action scenes, maybe this is the reason for the low rating, oh, and yes the little girl is annoying but hey, she is just a teen in our days so she didn't make a mistake. So for an sad adventure tale or for the melancholic type of audience this one is just fine.

Man against the elements and predators on two legs is a regular cinematic theme, here though it is woman and feisty teenager against predators and then the elements. The hero, who studies hyenas and stuff for a living, doesn't last long when he is murdered after walking into what appears to be a rhino poaching operation. His daughter escapes, and is rescued by his Russian girlfriend. Clearly there has been friction between the two females, probably on account of the marriage break up, but you know how thirteen year olds can be.The big question is can either or both of them survive between automatic weapons, a shortage of potable water, hungry hyenas and the odd dust storm? Perhaps the even bigger question is what sort of poaching operation is this that has not only wheels but eyes in the sky? Still, one of the bad guys is not rotten to the core.

I believe this is a solid film that has a lot going for it. The actors did a fine job with their parts and the story was believable enough. I am not going to fault the story for be too simplistic because the layers were there in the details, in how the story was told in its style, direction and location. When the characters were on set they looked like they were somewhere. What was happening look real and the animals were somehow made available and in proximity of the actors. I don't know how the producers were able to pull it off, but it looked as though people were in real danger. And during the course of the picture there was also a wind storm that looked very genuine. A film-goer would have to become extremely jaded to come down too hard on this movie and give it a poor rating.

I can tell you right off the bat that I'm not going to write 10 real lines for this excuse of a D-movie!I'm just going to tell you that the characters are a joke and that the only actor that does a decent job is Dorff. That Russian actress is a joke - who the heck did she sleep with to get that role?! Stormare is on screen for maybe 5 minutes in total and Dorff is only in it for about half the duration... Oh and Dorf holding a gun on the cover/poster is purely for marketing purposes - he's not even touching a gun in the movie itself. Guess that's 10 lines which is 10 too many for this crap! AVOID!!
