In the end, The Jewel of the Nile didn't really meet expectations. Not at the Box Office and not with me. It's a decent enough adventure effort, but fail to live up to Romancing the Stone. If you are after excellence stick with the aforementioned predecessor. If you just want an ok enough adventure movie to pass a couple of hours, The Jewel of the Nile will do.

The Jewel of the Nile continues the adventures of romance novelist Joan Wilder, but this time in a more contrived and stereotypical action film. While sailing around the world with Jack Colton, Joan becomes bored with writing romance novels and accepts an invitation do an article on an African dictator who's about to united the tribes of his country, but soon after arriving at his palace she discovers that things aren't as they appear. Michael Douglas, Kathleen Turner, and Danny DeVito all return and slip quite easily back into their characters. But, this time the story is completely formulaic and takes itself too seriously; which drains a lot of fun out of the film. While The Jewel of Nile isn't as good as its predecessor, it's still entertaining and has its moments.
