Review of Sahara

Sahara (2005)
4/10
loud, offensive, boring
8 March 2006
Warning: Spoilers
This is precisely what sort of movie Team America was parodying. Smart @ss Americans come to your country and blow stuff up while awful music blares! I usually like this sort of adventure story (a la Indiana Jones or James Bond), but the execution of Sahara was ham-fisted and seemed completely unaware of the obvious moral ambiguities of the lead character. Classic anti-hero stuff, completely glossed over.

Love story, if you could call it that, was tepid and fairly unbelievable. No chemistry between Mathew and Penelope. When they finally kiss, they both seem reluctant or embarrassed.

I'm amazed I sat through the whole thing.
