1996, Egypt. Searching for a treasure on the Nile, DIRK PITT thwarts the attempted assassination of a beautiful U.N. scientist investigating a disease that is driving thousands of North Africans into madness, cannibalism, and death.

I read Clive Cussler's NUMA stories a long time ago. I quit when Dirk Pitt retired. I knew Dirk Pitt, and Matthew McConaughey is no Dirk Pitt! I like Penélope Cruz, and she made a great WHO doctor.

Matthew McConaughey in "Sahara". A bunch of pretty people, in pretty locations doing pretty much nothing at all. I've never read Clive Cussler's books: but I'm going to go out on limb and say he didn't mean for his hero, Dirk Pitt, to just be a vacuous Chippendales dancer on a spree. That's basically what you get from...

Some may enjoy the race to find the cause of a plague, save the world, fulfill a dream while obtain riches that no one could ever imagine, enjoy the beautiful body of Matthew McConaughey, and/or become the lucky man to get the girl at the end... a fantasy world all created in the luxury of your seat as you, the viewer, is...
