    Breck Eisner’s 2005 film, “Sahara,” adapts the 1992 novel of the same name by Clive Cussler. In the story, Dirk Pitt (Matthew McConaughey), Al Girodino (Steve Zahn), retired Admiral James Sandecker (William H. Macy), and retired Commander Rudi Gunn (Rainn Wilson) work for the NUMA organization to recover sunken antiquities and shipwrecks. While in Africa, Dirk starts looking for a Confederate ironclad that fled Virginia near the end of the Civil War laden down with gold and supposedly made it to West Africa. Along the way, they must help Dr. Eva Rojas (Penélope Cruz), a doctor with the WHO, who discovered what appears to be a plague spreading through the water in Mali. Her investigation raises the hackles of local warlord General Kazim (Lennie James) and Yves Massarde (Lambert Wilson), a businessman working with General Kazim, so Dirk and Al must postpone their search for the Confederate gold to help Dr. Rojas uncover the cause of the plague. The production on this film is wonderful, with great character development, tense action scenes, and some real comedy. It’s everything a movie viewer could want in an action flick. Unfortunately, it doesn’t look like there will be a sequel anytime soon, which is a pity as McConaughey, Zahn, and Macy make a good team.

    5.0 out of 5 stars "You do throw like a girl!" [Dirk]
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on July 11, 2015
    This 2005 action adventure movie features Dirk Pitt [Matthew McConaughey] and Al Giordino [Steve Zahn] as a pair of treasure seekers currently trying to find the location of an American Civil war river boat. Acting on new information they head to Africa where they soon encounter Dr. Eva Rojas [Penélope Cruz] who reluctantly joins their upriver excursion.
    This action packed movie has a great opening scene as the ship escapes the war before jumping to modern times. The search involves them in civil wars, plagues, roaming bandits, dodgy dealings, damsels in distress and an unforgiving environment. Youngsters will enjoy the action but adults may dislike the unrealistic plot but if you liked films such as `King Solomons Mines', `Jewel in the Crown' or `Romancing the Stone', or even the `Librarian' series then this should be right up your street.
    This 12 rated disc has no special features other than normal play, scene selection and subtitles [with hard of hearing selection] but the action is `adventurous' and comic rather than gore and is a good family movie deserving of *****.
