5.0 out of 5 stars Journey To The Center of my Soul, December 13, 2001

By	Scott A. Lipnick (Albany, NY) - See all my reviews

Cunning. Ingenious. Skillful.

There are words that accuratly describe the Harry Hurwitz masterpiece know as Safari 3000. Hurwitz, who had directed such cinematic gems as 1994's Fleshtone and 1984's No Tell Hotel, hones in on greatness in his Junior effort. Set in the large and wild country of Africa, David Carradine and Stockard Channing team up as stunt-man and writer, competing to win an international road-race. There are many elements of this movie that are extremely rewarding, expecailly how Hurwitz decided to set the movie in Africa. What a joy! Now Africa has the distinction of gaining notiriety from not just Safari 3000, but Ace Ventura Two When Nature Calls, Ernest Goes to Africa, and Shaft in Africa. When did this country get so popular? If you havent seen this cult classic, by all means go to your local Blockbuster and demand that the inept teenage chashier orders five, if not ten copies. We all have a chance of dying as each day passes. Not seeing this film would be a sin, unless your "special" like Timothy Rice.

2.0 out of 5 stars Nice attempt, Bad results, June 11, 2001

By	Stephen W. Rice "ricesw" (Delmar, New York United States) - See all my reviews

If you are looking to laugh outloud while watching a movie, then buy this movie right away and watch it. However, you will only be laughing at the utter stupiditiy that must have gone though the minds of the directors while making this film. With no big name stars, and basically no plot at all, this film amazingly earned 2 stars in this review because it made me laugh at it's simple, pathetic attempt at cinema. An international race through the African Safari? Wow! I do not know where the idea for this film came from, nor do I really care to find out. I am glad I watched it however, because now I have the honor of claiming that I have seen the worst movie ever produced in the history of film making. Own it. Watch it. Laugh at it.

2.0 out of 5 stars Baboons on the Road!!!, May 19, 2008

By	saltydog "Let's Roll" (SW OH USA) - See all my reviews

Not Cannonball Run or Death Race 2000, but funny at times. "Why are there so many baboons on the road?"
