Saw this movie last night. Couldn't believe it cost 130 million bucks to make. But the "non stop action" was fun.
Could someone familiar with the book direct me to a website or fill me in on what the Sahara author found troubling about the movie? Thanks ahead of time.
And Penelope Cruz looks like a mouse. Sorry, but it had to be said.
Clive Cussler has written numerous adventures with his Dirk Pitt and found Paramount to be in violation of an agreement he and the Studio had.
Sahara the book is over 700 pages and that was totally unfilmable, so the script writers of which there were a few (never a good sign) reduced the book to a 2 hour movie.
He believes that Paramount changed much in what was filmed and what was in the original script
At 130 million, Sahara must make a substantial profit as I hear he is considering a lawsuit of over 90 mil
Hope this helps
