    A great night in with this epic movie. Wonderful Kenyan landscapes and excellent performances from all the characters. Strong storyline, based on fact, safe for family viewing! Lovely costumes. Great additional notes from the voice of the director made an additional evening's viewing too.

  • Beautiful Africa

    Rated - 4.0 stars

    A beautiful film about Karen Blixen. We visited her house in Nairobi so it was interesting to see the house and grounds in the film. The photography is stunning and the film has great acting provided by Meryl Streep and Robert Redford. It was a little boring at times but worth watching.

    A long film, and bit slow but enjoyable none the less. Good music score and scenery to this romantic epic.

  • Breathtaking scenery but film a little slow

    Rated - 3.0 stars  
    By a customer , 12 Jan 2013
    Fantastic acting and authentic accent from Meryl Streep, accompanied with breathtaking scenery (worth getting the Blu Ray version if you have the technology). Found the adaptation a little slow and over stretched in parts but nonetheless a classic that is a 'must watch'.

    Truly superb, I have watched many times and rate it as Meryl Streeps top 3 performances. Beautifully shot with amazing backdrops. One not to be missed. 5 stars

  • Out of Africa

    Rated - 4.0 stars

    Again following our recent spell of watching Meryl Streep films , a very good well acted film we've come to almost expect from her. A very powerful film focusing on a strong woman who selflessly tried to help others while through the film suffering heartbreak and setback , all with the beauty of Africa a colourful vast beautiful backdrop. Not a film for people who like fast paced or action but if you like a strong story and a historical look at very early 20th century Africa , you could do a lot worse than rent this movie ......
