So much was wrong with this movie - the acting, script, continuity, pristine sets / props in what should be a dusty dirty location....
Not even the occasional appearance of a "believable" actor able to deliver their lines or an inspired vista from Jorge Romans drone-cam redeems this movie for me
Trying too hard to be a Guy Richie lock-stock, I think the daily rushes were sunk with copious amounts of Tequila - not a bad thing, but when you're working the next day lads - come on!!
The lack of a continuity credit explains how 2 actors can run splashing out from the sea to save their girl, only to appear seconds later on the beach bone dry....
Vehicles driving on dirty dust track roads are valet clean.... with CLINICA signage that goes from pristine to flakey in less than a day
2 Treasure Hunting meat-heads who have a fight every 15 minutes, but their costume always looks washed & pressed....
Poorly paid "nurses" who have access first to a car, then pickup and then a clinic vehicle...
And, who all live in a humid jungle village but sleep fully clothed, without fans or aircon?
Then there's the lack of mosquitos - even the surprise out-of-jungle city visitors don't get nibbled....
Where can I buy some of those amazing jungle webcams that can stream seamlessly to the shack they all live in...
But for me, the biggest crime is so little of the story is "shown" or discovered by the viewer; Instead it's 'told' in crass back story dialogue and unbelievable 'speeches'
Such a pity, as the premise is actually good - just poorly written and executed.
