The Jewel of the Nile is equally classic:
In this sequel to Romancing the Stone, Jack (played by Michael Douglas, photo, right) and Joan (played by Kathleen Turner, photo, left), have their yacht and easy life, but are gradually getting bored with each other and this way of life. Joan accepts an invitation to go to some Middle Eastern country as a guest of the sheik, Omar (played by Spiros Focás) but there she is abducted and finds herself involved with the "jewel". Jack decides to rescue her with his new partner, Ralph, (played by Danny DeVito). But what is the story of this "jewel"?
In the original story we watched Turner blossom from timid storyteller to lusty adventuress. In this flick she is too much like all the other action adventure babes we've seen before.
Rico says there's nothing wrong with 'lusty adventuresses' or 'action adventure babes'... (
Spoiler alert: the 'jewel' is a
guy (played by
Avner Eisenberg).
