One of the worst movies I've watched on the archives. The main two characters are nasty and unappealing. Unlike the usual movies that has the premise of two men who are rivals, but have deep down affection for one another, this one makes you feel that they genuinely hate one another. The title is a misnomer. There was probably 5 minutes total of aerial footage. The rest of the movie had an incomprehensible plot about bandits or whatever set in an unappealing jungle location. Pass.
