Editorial Review:

Amazon.com:
Val Kilmer stars as Lt. Col. John Patterson, a 19th-century Irish engineer drafted by Britain's railroad bosses to build a trestle bridge over an African river, thus expanding the empire a tiny bit more. In Tsavo, Patterson is instantly hailed for killing a man-eating lion that had been making life hell for native workers. But morale sinks when a pair of unstoppable big cats devour more men and destroy the project. Along comes an Ahab-like, expatriate American hunter (Michael Douglas) to help Patterson face the almost preternatural powers of the two killers. The script by William Goldman (Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid) is based on fact, though the film owes more to Spielberg (specifically to Jaws) than history. There are also suggestive echoes of Kipling and Conrad in the material and characters, and there are hints of emotional complexity and psychological nuance that make one wish this could have been a great film instead of a merely fun one. --Tom Keogh

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - The Ghost and the Darkness VHS tape
The object was in fair condition. I wasn't sure it would play properly. The box was broken in several places with pieces rattling around inside the box that held the tape. This could have happened in shipping. However, the tape did play properly. I realize "condition" of the object being purchased is a relative thing. However, I would rate it as "fair".




Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Grandson loves this movie
My grandson loved this movie and requested it for his birthday. As soon as we gave it to him he opened it and watched it right away.
Thank you!!



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Exciting, Beautiful but Above All - Cool
Two male lions kill lots of people. Sounds cool, and it bloody well is. The Ghost and the Darkness is, by all accounts, a thrilling experience to sit through. It's far from being a perfect film, and yet it's a film that's somehow impossible to hate, or even dislike. There's lots of animal attack galore to be found here, yet it never quite overrides the overall visual appeal of it all.

In 1898, Irish Colonel John Patterson is sent to the river Tsavo, Africa, to construct a railroad bridge ... Read More

The Ghost and the Darkness
Upon going to a friend's house, we decided to watch a movie. He had a large selection of movies both him and I had never heard of. We just picked out one with an interesting case and slid it in. The Ghost and the Darkness is what we got. Surprisingly, this movie is a much better experience than one would think. The story is a little farfetched, but not enough so you feel alienated from the story.

John Patterson is sent to Africa to build a bridge. This story ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - too dark
most of this movie is filmed in the dark & you can't see half of what is going on. Plot was good but it needed to be a lot lighter.

The on-board menus, entertainment and lecture program will be geared to British tastes and the currency will be sterling. Queen Victoria will fly the red ensign; she will have the name of her home port, Southampton, on her stern, and she will have a British Captain and Officers.   In design terms the cruise Cunard Queen Victoria will have an undeniably British feel with two British design teams being responsible for the interior of the Cunard Queen Victoria.

Queen Victoria is being built at Italy’s Fincantieri shipyard in Marghera, near Venice, with her keel laid on July 12, 2003. One of the most technically advanced shipbuilders in the world, Fincantieri has built more than 7,000 vessels, including many for Cunard’s parent Carnival Corporation. Originally ordered as the fifth in a series of five 'Vista' class ships for sister company Holland America, the contact was signed over to Cunard before the keel was laid and Holland America then ordered a further ship for delivery  in 2006.   Enjoy a Cruise on Queen Victoria.  The lead ship in the series, Zuiderdam, entered service in December 2002.

No cruise schedules have yet been announced. Her float out is scheduled for May 2007, prior to her delivery in March 2008.She is scheduled to enter service in April 2008.
