Raetsonwe Redundant and unnecessary.

Supelice Dreadfully Boring

Tayyab Torres Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

Brenda The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

mmh-vanveen The movie would be a total waste of time if it had not been for the perfect acting performance given by Zane and Carradine. The latter indisputably has the talent to appear in a successful way in any movie, and apart from that, The Diamond of Jeru does show how incredibly beautiful he is now. Zane is very handsome as well, particularly since he shaved his head bald shortly after the shooting of this movie, which, in my opinion, killed his good looks altogether. The movie on DVD should be purchased by all hardcore Carradine fans - even the smart clothing he wears makes it worthwhile, but to all of you looking for a breath-taking experience - you'd better stick to the good old Indiana Jones tapes or just watch Ren and Stimpy on cable TV.

wibstyle A great adventure. Felt like an Indiana Jones movie but with lower budget. Could have been more adventure, but i like it and i don't think this movie deserve 5,3 in rating. its more like 6,5 or 7. A good Friday adventure movie.

12-string Talky adventure set in 1955 Borneo takes forever to get the main plot going after a splashy intro. Husband and wife hire adventurer to take them into the jungle in search of diamonds. Ulterior motives exist. Pretty average tv original movie from a story by oldtime pulp hack Louis L'Amour.It's quite reminiscent, though not nearly as flip and breezy, of the 1987 David Keith vehicle, FURTHER ADVENTURES OF TENNESSEE BUCK -- which also featured a husband and wife team heading into the untracked jungle with a raffish East Indies adventurer. However, this being a USA tv movie, there is no scene involving a hot oil rubdown. (Sigh.)On a scale of 1-10, a 3 from 12-stringer. Adventure movie for people who've never seen an adventure movie.

MichaelM24 Contains SPOILER THE DIAMOND OF JERU was much better than I was expecting from a "USA Original Movie." From the Indiana Jones-style opening credits to the exciting climax, it was one entertaining jungle adventure film. Billy Zane made an appealing hero and should do more of these types of film (check him out in THE PHANTOM for something similar). Though it got just a tad slow after a good first thirty minutes or so, it picks up as soon as the characters get into the jungle. And though the revelation at the end that Zane's character didn't kill the bad guy takes away from the hard edge the character could have had, the rest of the film is entertaining, even if it could have used a bit more cliffhanger matinee-style action. But all-in-all, a fun adventure film the whole family can enjoy, with a rousing climax. It's no Indiana Jones, but it's better than most of what's been made for television. Can't wait for the DVD release, if there ever is one.
