My Thoughts:
While I have seen this movie before... it hasn't been since it was originally released on VHS.... a good 20 years ago. So needless to say there wasn't much about this movie that I remembered. Basically like seeing it again for the first time. All I really remembered from it is that I enjoyed it quite a bit. And that proved to be true today. I enjoyed every minute of the storyline. And also enjoyed Tom Selleck in the role of Quigley as well. Which did surprise me in a way. I never minded him as an actor... but at the same time he isn't someone I ever thought of when I tried to think of good actors either. I always been the type of person that enjoys a good Western... but only when I am in the mood to watch one... which seemed to come seldomly. But while I really wasn't that much in the mood for one today... I still enjoyed it quite a bit. This is one I would recommend to anyone. Even if Westerns isn't your favorite genre.My Rating:

My Thoughts:
Much like the Allan Quartermain movies did this one also tried to cash in on the success of the Indiana Jones movies. Another adventure quest in search for mythical treasure.
It wasn't a bad movie... some entertaining bits between the mismatched pair of Chuck Norris and Lou Gosset Jr. They just couldn't resist showing the trademark slo-mo roundhouse kick that is in all of Norris' films.
I've always liked Sonny Landham but I'm sure if you asked him he'd tell you he felt quite foolish hamming it up as the big Indian antagonist.
Melody Anderson who played the female lead gave a forgettable performance. I hate it when they pick a chick who is perfect beautiful thinking that will make up for a lack of acting skill.
Good way to waste 90 minutes as long as you aren't expecting much.

This was a total blind buy. I bought the complete series. Luckily, I enjoyed the first episode. I am already through half the first season and still enjoying it.
