This movie is really really good. I think it’s Val Kilmers best film, it’s so crazy to me how big these lions were in real life

This movie has me realing at the fact that male Lions traveled in a man killer mentality. I have heard many stories about young males working together to feed themselves but never in this capacity. To actually hunt a specific pray only for sport is terrifying.The scene were they have moved the hospital to lure the Lions in makes them seem cunning and very intelligent. It's the way they could tell human blood from animal that pits your stomach.

This is one of our families favorite Val Kilmer movies of all time. I couldn't believe I found it through Best Buy. If you haven't seen it yet, I highly suggest getting it immediately!

While details of this bizarre event have been amended for dramatic purposes the bulk of the story is accurate and almost unbelievable

A severely underrated story about lions attacking railroad workers in Africa. It's pretty intense and ranks up there with Jaws.

This movie is amazing. Very old school, and thats probably what appeals to me most. It is a true story about the lions of Tsavo, and thats absolutely fascinates me! A definate purchase for anyone interested in Africa or wildlife!

DOUGLAS FITS THE PART OF REMINGTON THE HUNTER AS IF ITWAS JUST WRITTEN FOR HIM---AND THEN YOU HAVE VAL---THE MAN KILMER---WHAT CAN I SAY---I THINK THE LIONS--PLAYED AND ACTED JUST A LITTLE BETTER------AND AT NOW LEAST THE ACTUAL TWO LIONS ARE NOW AT THE ---CHICAGO FIELD MUSEM ----FOR THE OVER ALL GREAT THRILLING AFRICAN ADVENTURE BASED ON TRUE EVENTS---AS THEY SAY----

Both Val Kilmer and Michael Douglass are just brilliant in this thriller movie about two lions in Africa on a long killing spree. This movie is intense and will have wondering if the lions are truely the kings of the jungle
