Average film about a doctor in Brazil searching for a cancer cure while being watched over by his boss and worrying about the local natives and the survival of their habitat. This is another of those "statement" films which indeed has a message....for all the good it does. Man is going to continue raping the land for money as surely as he will continue to wage war for the same. I found the scene with Lorraine Bracco getting high on the local caffeine elixir, and then down with the favorite homebrew to be very funny.
