Movie Reviews

Ozus' World Movie Reviews - 8/10 by Dennis SchwartzThis was the only time Loren and Wayne appeared together on film.
User Review - 10/10 by Greg MFilmed in beautiful Libya this movie is sexy. Wayne and Loren are the best I have ever seen them. The writing is excellent.
User Review - 10/10 by Phenyezia OOutstanding movie John Wayne is my family favorite actor
User Review - 8/10 by William DOne of the most unique movies the Duke ever did. It is about a man seeking the treasure his long lost father wrote about and the love he had for a wayward soul, until he lost the faith he had in father, rather than in God. It makes some interesting points about missplaced faith. It's worth seeing.
User Review - 8/10 by Joseph BMy favorite part was when John Wayne said no firewood was available while they were surrounded by trees. That and Sophia Loren, although I liked her better in Man of La Mancha. And where did all that water come from that they used to wash the bat guano off their treasure? hmmm, but it was a good movie nonetheless. No Lawrence of Arabia, but I enjoyed it.
User Review - 8/10 by Jeff ZThis is a "lost" John Wayne classic. I'd always seen bits and pieces of this film on the late movie and it didn't look too good. I finally got the DVD and was able to watch it from beginning to end and was most pleased. Henry Hathaway, who directed the Duke in "True Grit" does a great job in this Bogart-esque film. Wayne plays the tough guide, Loren a reformed prostitute, Brazzi as a man with the dream of finding a lost city. Very entertaining.
User Review - 8/10 by Erik GA lost city, a sandstorm, John Wayne judo flips Sophia Loren, a grubby desert outpost, madness, redemption, buried treasure, sand, Jack Cardiff cinematography...good times.
User Review - 8/10 by Paul DJohn Wayne looking for treasure in the desert with Sophia Loren and some Italian guy. I love Wayne so that's pretty much why I liked this, I don't think I've seen a really bad Wayne film yet, actually. Loren is fucking annoying though and the Italian guy is just stupid. Some really great shots of the desert as well.

User Review - 6/10 by TonyPolito1980ish film-goers likely thought films about "adventuring for the treasures of lost civilizations" - films such as Harrison Ford's "Raiders of the Lost Ark" and Richard Chamberlain's "King Solomon's Mines"- represented some kind of brand new genre of action flick. But this film clearly proves otherwise. Wayne's home base is Timbuktu and, for someone whose hip-swagger is obviously not the least bit Arabian, he's pretty durn experienced in guiding the adventurous across the vast sands of the Sahara. Strapped for cash, Wayne signs up to lead a rich man (Rossano Brazzi) on desert caravan. Brazzi wants to follow his dead father's map to lost treasure - perhaps the treasure of King Solomon himself - lost within the lost city of Ophir. "Gold, silver, ivory, gems ... rubies the size of eggs, emeralds as big as hands." But it's really the lost love and respect of his father for which Brazzi searches, far more than riches. Wayne, always the pragmatist, reminds Brazzi that "the desert is filled with bones that went looking for lost treasure." Also sparkling like jewels are the eyes of love interest Sophia Loren, a working gal craving the kind of redemption that an idealistic dreamer such as Brazzi can provide her. This trio (and the viewer), properly set-up, saddle up and ride out into the dusty abyss. Though, for reasons known only to the film's producer, they saddle up on donkeys instead of camels. Technicolor and Technirama (2.35:1; a brief competitor to CinemaScope). Meaning appropriately wide viewing of the film's many scenic panoramas, and with high-quality color that has endured. Such panoramas and cinematography don't invoke "Lawrence of Arabia" by any means, but they're still reasonably satisfying. Unlike the aforementioned 1980s films, this one's not the stuff of hyper-fast action. It's more akin to a hunt for the gold in a mid-Century Western, re-set into this exotic locale. Instead of Comanches possibly looming over the next ridge-top, the viewer gets Tuaregs possibly looming over the next sand dune. RECOMMENDATION: Sure, you already know what's waiting for all three at trail's end, but not what's waiting for them at the next oasis. Plus bonus points for an out-of-the-box Wayne & Loren match-up a-sizzling aside a camel-chip campfire. Cha-ching ! TRIVIA: Films such as these rightfully belong to a genre called "lost world," first defined over a hundred years ago, when places such as Troy, the Valley of the Kings and lost African cities were just being rediscovered by Western civilization. And the founding of that genre, surprisingly, is based on an 1885 work of fiction titled "King Solomon's Mines" telling of adventurer Allan Quatermain, that character based upon true British adventurer Frederick Selous.
