Movie - The Ghost and The Darkness

Watched this movie with the family last night, I thought it was very good. Set in 1898, this movie is based on the true story of two lions in Africa that killed 130 people over a nine month period, while a bridge engineer (Val Kilmer) and an experienced old hunter (Michael Douglas) tried to kill them. There is a little gore and a little swearing, but overall I'd say this is suitable for family viewing for children over 10, unless your kids are sensitive to gore. Like I say, there's not a lot of gore, but the movie IS about lions killing lots of people.

Re: Movie - The Ghost and The Darkness

I like this one a lot as well (I actually own it on LaserDisc of all things!). I caught a showing on HD OnDemand a few months back and it looked incredible. If you ever make to the Field Museum in Chicago they have the actual Tsavo lions on display.
