Master explorer Dirk Pitt (
Matthew McConaughey) takes on the adventure of his life when he embarks on a treasure hunt through some of the most dangerous regions of West Africa. Searching for what the locals call "The Ship of Death," a long lost Civil War battleship which protects a secret cargo, Pitt and his wisecracking sidekick (
Steve Zahn) use their wits and clever heroics to help Doctor Eva Royas (
Penélope Cruz) when they realize the ship may be linked to mysterious deaths in the same area.
Based on the best-selling novel by Clive Cussler.
This was a fairly good movie. The storyline knid of sucked though. 3 stars
I thought it was very entertaining, can`t wait for more of the same. a little far fetched but who cares. you can lose you`re self in this movie and forget about life for a couple of hours. Great characters.
