Danger Park - Tödliche Safari

The makers of this movie had a good intent, to point out the problem of poachers in Africa, focusing here on Kenya. To do it they developed a fictional story of a family of four, plus their daughter's boyfriend, traveling for a vacation observing wildlife in Kenya. To me the most interesting part of the movie happens during the last 30 minutes.

My wife started watching with me, at home on DVD from our public library. She gave up and left the room after about 20 minutes. The vacationers are so annoying that I was hoping some animals would eat them quickly and put us viewers out of our misery. But that didn't happen.

Anyway this is mostly a miss, it was interesting enough because unless you watch a truly poor movie occasionally you can't really appreciate the good movies with well-written scripts.

When I read the reviews for this film the one thing I repeatedly saw being said was that there was non stop stupid decisions by the main characters. I would like to remind people that this is basically the premise for every film. If people made the right decisions there would be nothing on TV.

I do agree however that the acting was bad an the CGI was not very well done. Definitely could have been better but was anyone reallu expecting this to be a masterpiece? There are definitely worse films out there.

As others have said the characters make stupid decisions. The worst is the daughter who decides to spit an criticize her kidnappers but her character was a bioche the whole way thru. BUT this is no worse than most of the movies that score 7 or even more out of 10. The one thing that really gets me is that at the end of the movie the director makes a big statement about rhinos & other animals disappearing due to poaching. SERIOUSLY? This cheezy movie did nothing to raise the issue of poaching other than the fact that there was 5 minutes of poaching in the movie. P.s i still can't believe that rebecca stamos married that goofy charlie guy.

It's a 10 if you like watching stupid people make one stupid decision after another.

I literally started fast forwarding 5 minutes in, hoping to reach a point where I wasn't watching a gang of imbeciles (the "family") but nope.... a total waste of time.

2 is being generous.

Though the production values were decent and the acting was acceptable, the story was trite and predictable from one minute to the next. I won't go into examples because that would necessarily add spoilers and, in any case, there are just too many of them to list. Additionally, most of the animals that were the main characters driving the story line were so noticeably computer generated they weren't believable at all. I expected more from this but was extremely disappointed. Not recommended.
