READ THE REVIEW

Austin American-Statesman: 2 of 5 stars
"Eisner's eye for desert scenery and sense of pacing overcome sometimes jarring editing and an incomprehensible plot."

The Atlanta Journal-Constitution: B
"McConaughey's Boy Scout enthusiasm is infectious. Cruz's turn as a beauty-with-a-med-school-degree is leagues better than Monica Bellucci's similar role in "Tears of the Sun." And Zahn is Zahn. Which is always a good thing."

The Palm Beach Post: B
"... Eisner manages this logistics-heavy production efficiently, salting the story with heart-thumping action sequences at regular intervals."

The Palm Beach Post "Flick Chick"
"Sahara doesn't ask you to believe this stuff could happen in real life. It just wants you to believe it for the two hours you're in that seat. And you do."
