  Somewhere up a crazy river February 3, 2004 9 out of 9 found this review helpful
Nicolas Roeg (Walkabout,Performance,etc)directs the difficult, intense novel by J.Conrad & tries to capture the menace and suspense of a trip up the Congo river in Victorian times with all its new frontier fears and uncertainties. Slowly we see the changes in the boats captain, Marlow, ably played by Tim Roth, as he loses his naivity and becomes mesmorised by both the jungle and the lure of meeting the mysterious Kurtz at the innermost ivory station. (Yes, youve seen it in Apocalypse Now).John Malkowich has the tough role as Kurtz,an impossible role as he has to be a man half god, half savage, as the jungle takes its toll on him. Good steamy shots, scary locals and some `whats it all about` make this a fine if flawed film, but thats life!
