A breathtaking adventure

Rating: 10/10 (9 February 2004)

A sarcastic comment on European colonialism, but most of all: an absolutely magnificent adventure about the two adventurers Daniel Dravot (Sean Connery) and Peachy Carnehan (Michael Caine), with ambitions of becoming kings of whatever country that may want them. Breathtaking scenery, witty dialogue, excellent acting, sarcastic humour and an absorbing story. This movie has it all.
The Indiana Jones and LOTR movies are great adventures, but simply can't be compared to this masterpiece. It's doesn't get better than this, and therefore it's one of five movies I've given the rating 10/10.
