Howard Hawks's 1962 adventure-comedy is basically the same, loosely plotted movie Hawks made over and over again for decades. A collection of professionals with a common goal--in this case, animal trapping in Tanganyika--forms a pocket community and holds each other to high standards in their work. This is a film about camaraderie, crisp banter, romance, and exciting action (the animal sequences are great). John Wayne played this part in about a thousand ways for Hawks over the years, and he could not be more entertaining as a grizzled pro. <I>--Tom Keogh</I>
Viewer Reviews
I first saw this movie when I was a little kid and enjoyed it immensely.Now that I am an adult,if anything I enjoy it more.It is the story of a group of adventurers who capture animals for zoos,a job desription that is pretty much extinct in the 21st century.John Wayne does his usual bang-up job as the leader with the delicious Elsa Martinelli(the reason why I enjoy the movie even more now)as his love interest.The co-stars include Hardy Krueger,Red Buttons and Wayne's often used friend,Bruce Cabot.The story is very episodic,but,laced with humor and action and a bit of romance,it never lags and holds your interest from the opening scene to the last.This is quite simply one of the most fun movies the Duke ever filmed.If you are looking for some fun time spent in front of the TV,this is a great way to spend a couple of hours or so.
