Why so much hype?

Boring, long, and too preachy.

When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

It's so rare, a french adventure yarn. This film is forgettable but remains a good time waster. Totally ignored when it was released, I wonder how the producers, director and actors got paid at the end. And there are many of this kind of films...Anyway, this story of a young man seeking for his brother and father in the green Guyana hell, among undercover gold searchers - and also law breakers - is entertaining enough to keep you awake. But I preferred SIX CENT KILOS D'OR PUR, two years ago, starring Clovis Cornillac, describing almost the same backgrounds: Guyana forest and its gold seekers, hard boiled adventurers. Philippe Nahon stars here the leader of the bad guys. A performance just fit for him.This film remains classic, with no surprises at all. But why not ?
