A megalomaniac C.E.O. sends his son into the dangerous African Congo on a quest for a source of diamonds large enough and pure enough to function as powerful laser communications transmitters.
When contact is lost with his son and the team, his sometime daughter- in-law is sent after them.
She is a former CIA operative and, accompanied by gee-whiz gadgetry and a few eccentric characters and sets out to rescue her former fiancé.
What they all discover is that often what we most want turns out to be the source of our downfall.
yes, the film was basically selling itself as the new Jurassic Park, and while it's nowhere near as good as that behemoth, it still has it's moments.
Despite the poor script, there are some good characters here who really make you want to like the film more. Curry as always is the one with a secret, Linney plays the straight woman, but most of all, it's Hudson here who really steals the show.
With his tongue firmly in cheek, he spouts his lines with cheesy glee stealing the thunder from anyone else.
Effects are not the best, but i think it adds to the films silly charm.
Not to be taken seriously, just a big silly movie.
