El Dorado

I watched the two episodes last night and I thought they were great. I wanted to be entertained and I was. Exciting story; yes very similar to Indiana Jones but any treasure/artifact hunting film will be. The story was good and well thought out, exciting while not being in the realms of the ridiculous. I enjoyed Luke Goss's performance. He is charismatic and those penetrating blue eyes riveting. He does not get enough credit for his performance in this film. It is the first time I have seen him act (only remember him in Bros!). The locations up in the Andes, the jungle and coast were truly spectacular, wonderful to see, especially for an armchair traveller like myself. I do not hold with the view that a film has to be 'Oscar' standard to be highly entertaining and in my opinion these two installments provide one with an excellent evenings viewing.

if you do not ignore than "El Dorado" is part of a precise genre, the film is more than decent. the recipes is used in right manner, the ingredients are the classic ones, the charm of Shane West is enough for a sort of Indiana Jones with great virtues or sins,Luke Goss did a not bad job and the adventure is pretty nice. the adventure, the massacred myth and the fight for treasure. nothing surprising. like each film with so precise target, it is easy to say than the disappointment is yours fault. because the acting or the special effects or the story are reasonable and it is bizarre to expect more. so, new version of a sort of story so well known. sure, in better versions.

Found the movie version of this, I do see how others see this is an Indiana Jones rip-off. Its still interesting and good in its own way. Then again, he isnt that likeable, when he actually talks to people, mainly because he is always fighting everyone.

This man explores places, gets chased, starts explaining what El Dorado is because the other geologist chaser doesnt know what it is (but also me as a viewer I dont know anything of this legend) But as a movie plot, it don't make sense that this women he explains to that she is suppose to be super talented and knowledgable, doesnt know about El Dorado.

I think this could be a good series either way, if it had continued, memorable leads technically.

This has great chase scenes, like very actioby and creative with the bulls. But also, cliff hanger of an ending...

Small Indiana Jones. With each piece of clock in perfect place. Charming hero, beautiful girl friend and dusty companion. South America as arena. Subject - mythical city of gold. So, a nice puzzle. Bad guy - part of a conspiracy. Corrupt army general. Wonderful images. And running, gun fires, old machines for protect artifacts, dusty story and victory of good guys. A tale with well known lines. But not boring. For the meeting of elements from a way to rebirth adventures in a gray world. For the errors , many childish of script. For the large eyes front of spectacular fight scenes. For the ambiguous line between good and bad. And for Luke Goss in the role of without soul brute, for a Shane West as a kind of James Dean the explorer.El Dorado is perfect excuse for this action movie.

Worst movie I've seen this year...Bad acting, bad screening, everything's bad about it... CGI from the stone age... I really can't find my words to describe such a fail of a movie. And I thought Indiana Jones was lame... Shane West, Oh God!!! He doesn't have the slightest idea about acting... everything he does is completely foreknown by any ten year old child watching. It is so obvious that he is "performing". And the other sidekick, Elden Henson, worse than everything you can imagine... However, I would recommend you to watch it, C-movie section............. ......... ........ ............... ........... ........... .......... ............. .................... ........ .......... ............. ................... ............. ..................... ..................... ................. .. ................... ................. ................... ............ ................... ............. ................ .............. .
