I really enjoyed this movie and even watching it on the smaller screen, such as the PSP, it did not lose any quality. Being based on a book series with such a popular character (Dirk Pitt) sometimes the movie is sort of a disappoinment. But Matthew McConaughey did a really good job as the lead character and although I envisioned Al Giordino (Steve Zahn) a little differently Steve Zahn pulled it off nicely. It would be nice to see them make more Clive Cussler books of the Dirk Pitt series into movies with the same actors as the lead characters. In this particular book it follows another of the adventures of Dirk Pitt and his pal Al across the desert to stop an environmental disaster. Some of the parts of the book were streamlined out but that normally happens when a book is turned into a movie. This movie was just as enjoyable as the book. A must see if you want to watch a good, fun movie with a little adventure mixed in.Read full review
I would recommend buying movies in this format if you are on the road and the kids are bored. The clarity is quite good for such a small picture. The movie itself is a good representation of Clive Cusslers book. The only possible discrepancy is the actor who played Giordino. He has black hair in the book and the one in the movie is a goofy blond guy. You will be entertained and that is the most important thing in my opinion.
A good thing

Great movie and its perfect having it on a psp easy transport and same enough to take any where. I want to buy more movies like this one for my psp.
This was one of the better adventure movies I have seen in recent years. Plot was relatively detailed and layered. Had a romantic component, but it was not the main partof the plot with everything else being filler. Exciting movie!
