Hatari! Ratings & Reviews

  • Mister ArnJune 18, 2025
    Hatari! is a Howard Hawks film starring John Wayne, set against the backdrop of a 1960s Africa. More a portrait of companionship than a traditional narrative, it blends thrilling animal chases with quiet, everyday moments around the compound. The real heart of the film lies in its relaxed rhythm and the natural rapport among the crew, who work, live, and trust one another.
