Neo-famigliola non proprio felice in vacanza in Africa; la nuova moglie si ritrova con i due figli del marituccio a fare un safari fotografico a 100 metri dalla civiltà, eppure la guida riesce a farsi sbranare da un leone durante una pausa-piscio.
Seguono 90 insulsi minuti di clamorose vaccate, durante le quali non si può non fare il tifo per le bestie.
Stuuu-pi-do.
Si segnalano gli effetti speciali alla Predator per la visione degli animali, Bridget Moynahan che non si spoglia abbastanza, il bracconiere più imbecille della storia, una jeep di cartone pressato ed un Peter Weller che non si apre la coscia per estrarne la Beretta.

Biografia:
Peter Weller is the youngest son of a career Army helicopter pilot. He was born in Stevens Point, Wisconsin but traveled extensively as his father literally flew around the world. Before he was out of his teens, he had attended high schools in Heidelberg, Germany and San Antonio, Texas, then enrolled the University of North Texas -- attracted by the chance of playing trumpet in one of the college's celebrated jazz bands. Music is in his family. Three generations on his mother's side were piano players and jazz is still his overriding interest. Ask him who his favorite performer in any art form is and he'll say Miles Davis. It was with a B.A. in Theatre and a scholarship to the American Academy of Dramatic Arts that he left Texas for New York. Two weeks after graduating, he made his first appearance on Broadway as David in Joseph Papp's New York Shakespeare Festival production of David Rabe's "Sticks and Bones", a role he repeated on the London stage. While a student of legendary actress and drama coach, Uta Hagen, Weller appeared on and off Broadway in works like William Inge's "Summer Brave", Thomas Babe's "Rebel Women" and "Full Circle", one of the last plays directed by Otto Preminger. He began garnering critical acclaim with his portrayal of Billie Wilson in "Streamers", directed by Mike Nichols for Joseph Papp at Lincoln Center. He continued that success with his performances as Cliff in "The Woolgatherer" and as Nick in the first American production of David Mamet's "The Woods". During this period, he became a member of the highly respected Actor's Studio, under the aegis of Elia Kazan and Lee Strasberg. Weller's film debut was in Richard Lester's Butch and Sundance: The Early Days (1979). He then co-starred with Alan King and Ali MacGraw in Sidney Lumet's Just Tell Me What You Want (1980) and, with Albert Finney and Diane Keaton, in Alan Parker's Shoot the Moon (1982). Other film credits include Firstborn (1984) with Teri Garr, the HBO made-for-TV Apology (1986) (TV), co-starring Lesley Ann Warren, and Of Unknown Origin (1983), the film which won Weller the Best Actor award at the Paris International Film Festival for his performance as an upwardly mobile bachelor with a serious rat problem. That same film also marked his first association with Leviathan (1989) director George P. Cosmatos.
Trivia random: He teaches a literature and fine arts class at Syracuse University. He can be seen on The History Channel's new documentary on Roman engineering.
Citazione random: [On turning down the third Robocop film]: "I have to say it didn't quite have the third great act that Robocop 1 had, and by the time I was into the second one I knew I was tired of it, plus David Cronenberg had asked me to do Naked Lunch with him, so I was happy to do it, and was happy to be gone."

Dutch (Schwarzenegger) and a small group of commandos and sent by the CIA to a Central American Jungle, to rescue capture airmen from Guerillas.

As Dutch and his men had back to transport, they are slowly targeted one by one.
Trivia random: Due to health and safety regulations, Arnold Schwarzenegger was not allowed to light his cigar inside the helicopter near the beginning of the film. As a result the glow was added optically in post-production.
