Review of Sahara

Sahara (2017)
6/10
Visually it look great, but script is outdated
21 June 2022
The concept is great, but the whole damsel in distress is just not doing it anymore today. Surprisingly the first part is worst than the second part. The movie actually gets much better after 45min

It looks great, but it lacks originality and strong characters. Rita is great and a backstory on her would probably be a good reason to make a spin off and do this right.

The comic relief character, Gary however is unbearably annoying, and the English voice actor makes it worst.

Some other odd choices are a snorting snake and a rap American gangsta song under a North African battle, whilst it could have been a highlight

And then there's a Bugs Bunny homage/rip off character, which it's a nice eater egg.

Overall I do think a sequel would be good, just with some new and original ideas.
