The Safari

About This Movie

The Safari (2003) offers this curious blend of adventure and comedy, following four Thai guys on a rather bizarre quest in Africa. They’re lured by the promise of cash to investigate a series of murders, armed with carbines and a fair bit of misplaced bravado. The pacing is a bit uneven, swinging from suspenseful moments to light-hearted antics, which gives it an odd charm. The film leans heavily into practical effects, lending a raw quality to its thrills. The performances are a mixed bag, but there’s something endearing about the cast’s commitment to the material. It’s not your typical safari flick and that’s what kind of makes it stand out in a collector's lineup.
