Val Kilmer and Michael Douglas track down man-eating lions
in this true story from 1890's Africa.
SEX/NUDITY 0 - None.
VIOLENCE/GORE 8 - A couple of fires, a man holds a gun to another's head.
Falls, chases. A cow is stabbed and a man drinks a cup of the blood, a vulture eats a
bloody corpse, a cave of skeletons, bloody grass after a lion attack. A building is
covered with blood and bloody animal parts (to lure lions). Lion attacks: one resulting in
bloody leg scratches, a lion pulls apart the bloody body of a victim, a lion jumps on one
man and shreds another's neck resulting in blood, a lion pulls a man along the ground then
kills him, a lion kills everyone in a hospital. Rioting, men are used as bait and are
nearly attacked by a lion. Lions are shot, some stalking scenes, a dream sequence has a
mother and her baby attacked by a lion.
PROFANITY 3 - A couple of scatological references and a few mild
obscenities. [profanity glossary]
DISCUSSION TOPICS - Lions and animal attacks, hunting, technological progress,
the past, Africa.
MESSAGE - Sometimes nature beats technology; you can't deny the beast within
or without.
