King Solomon's Mines Ratings & Reviews
- SakyoshaFebruary 22, 2025A product of its time, and of its made-for-TV budget; this movie takes a little while to find its groove - but eventually discovers its charm.
- RichardAugust 3, 2025Fortune hunter Allan Quatermain (Richard Chamberlain) teams up with the spirited Jesse Huston (Sharon Stone) to find her missing father, who vanished while searching for the legendary mines of King Solomon. Their journey through 1900s Africa pits them against hostile tribes, deadly traps and a rival German explorer, all in pursuit of unimaginable treasure. King Solomon’s Mines is a wild, uneven ride through jungle adventure tropes. While it lacks the polish and coherence of its Hollywood inspirations, it delivers campy thrills, eccentric villains and enough absurdity to earn cult status among fans of retro action. Best enjoyed with a sense of irony and a love for ‘80s excess.
- Mister ArnMay 23, 2025This is a very poor imitation of Raiders of the Lost Ark, filled with poorly thought-out scenes.
