Sahara

A Review by Daniel

Well I'll start out by saying that Sahara turned out to be much better than I anticipated. I ended up seeing Sahara with a group of friends the other day instead of Hostage, which I had really been wanting to see. I really had no idea what Sahara was about and did not know what to expect.

But, as I said, it turned out to be not half-bad. The plot was decent, decent enough to keep me guessing as to what was about to happen next for most of film. The acting in the film was alright, but could certainly have been better.

There were certainly far too many events in the movie that occurred too conveniently. I know this is the movies, but come on. There were just a few too many far fetched happenings.

Nevertheless, I think this movie does appeal to a fairly large audience and it's worth seeing. Just don't expect it to be a life changer. ;-)
