Despite the critical drubbing and box-office failure of King Solomon's Mines (1985), Cannon Films released this sequel two years later, again featuring Richard Chamberlain as adventurer Allan Quatermain and a pre-Basic Instinct Sharon Stone; the result is marginally better than its predecessor, and may please "bad film" fans. This time around, Quatermain is seeking his brother (Martin Rabbett), who has disappeared while on an expedition to locate a legendary white tribe in Africa. Quatermain's search leads him to the title city, which is controlled by evil Henry Silva (overacting with relish). Director Gary Nelson and returning writer Gene Quintano achieve a few more half-hearted laughs here than in its predecessor, and the cast, which includes James Earl Jones and Cassandra "Elvira" Peterson, do their best with the material, but this can't hold a candle to the 1937 and 1950 film versions of King Solomon's Mines. --Paul Gaita




Rating: - Allan Quatermain and the Lost City of, er, White
"Half of Africa's been explored on rumor, hope, legend..." "And blood" The same could be said of the film industry.

Rating: - A sequel to MINES
KING SOLOMON'S MINES and ALLAN QUATERMAIN AND THE LOST CITY OF GOLD are typically over-shadowed by the bigger budget INDIANA JONES trilogy. There is good reason for that; the IJ movies are the apex of the action movie genre. However, that's not a good reason NOT to watch these two flicks.

The films detail the exploits of a hero named Allan Quatermain (Richard Chamberlain) and his girlfriend / fiancee Jessie (Sharon Stone). Together they make up a sort of Indiana Jones character as he is ... Read More

Rating: - A throwback to the bad old days
Once upon a time somebody released a movie called Raiders of the Lost Ark, which did very well at the box office. There was a scramble to cash in on its success, and so, some Hollywood types decided to re-make Rider Haggard's King Solomon's Mines with Richard Chamberlain and the relatively unknow Sharon Stone. It wasn't a bad movie, but it was no masterpiece either. As the making of the movie progressed, Miss Stone's garments kept shrinking in the wash. The makers, realising that this might save the ...
