The writing and directing is terrible. The characters do and say everything that anyone with the slightest bit of common sense would never do or say. It is so ridiculous, that it is very hard to enjoy the story. I'm watching it right now and I just experienced another idiotic scene. Average fiction movies don't get ridiculous until the end, because it's easy to start an untrue story but not as easy to end one, at least not with any believability. But this movie decided "what the hell, why wait till the end?" .... Final thoughts: Don't waste your time, unless u like crap... OK wait. On the pro's side: cinematography, lighting, audio and over dubbing was great. But since most people watch movies for the story, I don't think the pro's matter much.

I didn't go in expecting much. But I kept it on in the background while I was having fun with my girlfriend. I don't know about these other reviewers. But for me...the experience of watching this movie left me satisfied. I just finished watching it and I think it was about aborigine's in the jungle. There isn't enough Cannibal Tribe movies out there but this was the best of it's kind. The characters, the story and most of all this awesome Director all got me perfectly invested in the movie. If you like movies about people being shipwrecked on an island with creepy jungles and Cannibals then this movie fits that description and does it perfectly well. I think this movie is terribly underrated and I recommend you give it a chance.

This movie has poor science and that is easily fixed by simply writing around it, which they don't. If a missing link human species hunted as good as these monsters we would have been out hunted. Its simply a showcase for there special effects with Planet of The Apes jumps mixed with a constant 'homage' to the Predator movie. Still it could have been worse yet with a little more creativity it could have been better. For one don't try to pitch these things as ancient humans, perhaps a mystery could have unfolded to reveal they were inbred aliens I don't know but this looks like a film crew testing their chops and writing a movie around that. They also test CGI with some odd sailboat shots so its a test, not a actual movie. Some gripe they don't look like the cover in this movie, well if its the cover I'm looking at that is a skull, and yes tribes can wear a skull of any creature so that is a mute point, as I assumed it to be a skull of an animal worn like a ritual hat.

First off, with the exception of a few goofs, this movie is actually made very well. Camera work is excellent, the settings are great, sound is original. And the acting is far better than the rest of the reviewers are giving credit for. There are movies with higher ratings with worse acting.That being said, now I can inform you that the script is total crap. They obviously had no money left for a script writer. It is a blatant rip-off of Predator (as well as some other films).-The creatures are tribal.-They use the trees to get around.-Shot of a python in a tree? Check!.-One character startles another with deep whispered "Over Here!"-When we are shown what creatures see, we hear heartbeats and the vision is a chroma warp black and white version of the Predator's vision.-Instead of mud, grape juice smeared on you will keep from being seen by the creatures.-The leader unmask himself for the final battle. (I was expecting her to say "You're one ugly mofo.")-In the climax of the battle, she gets picked up by the neck and they gleam each other eye to eye.This movie also steals ideas from "Lost" and "The Descent". The creatures faces were stolen from Brahm Stoker's Dracula (Francis Ford Coppola) and jump around like "Planet Of The Apes" .On top of all this, the subtle motive for the human antagonist is a plot by the Christian agenda to cover up evolution. This is completely unnecessary and would have only worked 20 years ago before evolution was a proved fact. When you make a science fiction movie that includes future events as the catalyst, it's probably best to do your homework and make sure those events are still science "fiction".
