A VHS my wife had. I had to pull the VCR out of the attic to watch. It was worth it though! Solid, funny, entertaining movie with a decent message about the complexity of modern life, and the simplicity of life in the African bush. I felt like it dragged a bit toward the end. And unfortunately, the tape was a bit messed up so we missed the last couple minutes. But I'd recommend it overall. We tried finding it on a streaming service before getting the VCR, but couldn't find it anywhere!

The last couple of minutes are profoundly good. The movie is full of slapstick humour and wacky situations, and you forget who is the main character and what his purpose is. It does slow down for a bit, but the last couple minutes are what tie the whole thing together beautifully. It is one of my favourite films, and my mother's favourite. I hope you can find the ending somewhere (yarr, matey, if nothing else).

I really enjoyed the second one, more than the first. But both are fun movies to watch.
