I thoroughly enjoyed it for what it was. A romantic, adventure- comedy set in Africa. The lead actor is a bumbling Chevy Chase-type researcher and the lead actress is a teacher moved from the city. I laughed most of the time. On the other hand, a review that I read in a liberal weekly newspaper called the movie patronizing and racist. I can see where that reviewer was coming from, but this movie is so unusual and unpretentious (unlike our Hollywood fare), that I would highly recommend it. Luke Burke mb2c!lfb
