"A Fascinating And Exotic Adventure." -Jeff Craig, Sixty Second Preview

"Leonardo DiCaprio is electrifying" (David Sheehan, CBS-TV) in this adrenaline-drenched, tantalizingly seductive thriller from the director of Trainspotting.

Richard (DiCaprio), a young American backpacker, is willing to risk his life for just one thing: that mind-blowing rush you can only get from braving the ultimate adventure. But on a secret, deceptively perfect beach, Richard will discover that "heaven on earth" can instantly change into a jungle of seduction and danger.

Co-starring sexy newcomer Virginie Ledoyen, this "journey to the unexpected, full of surprises, twists and turns, love and romance, lust and desire" (Maris Sallas, GEMS) explores the hidden perils and dark places that lurk just beyond the shores of paradise...

I think this film is so underated, as a previous review said it really does have something to it that other films lack, I can't pinpoint what it is other than to say there's something far more deeprooted and beautiful to the story and plotline than could ever be assumed simply from a clip or 'judging it by the cover'. I really love to stumble across this being aired on tv at nights, I ALWAYS watch it threw because it never gets old.

Customer rating: 5 out of 5 stars Fantastic!!!
