    Intriguing buddy-adventure film with great visuals
  

*by A***. on Reviewed in the United States on January 3, 2013*

My kids are learning about Marco Polo and I was looking for "supplementary" educational materials, and stumbled on this film.#1. This movie is about a massive, crazy global travel adventure. It's not really about Marco Polo. However, my kids now have a much better appreciation of the actual route Polo traveled, the distance involved, the hardships, climates, and peoples on the way.#2. This movie shows a lot about the peoples and on-the-ground life & politics of some very remote places in the Middle East and Central Asia. Watch this and get an appreciation for what it's like in Afghanistan, Tajikistan, Iran, etc. though note that this journey occured in the early 1990s, long before 9/11, before the Taliban took over, and before the US invasion of Afghanistan.#3. This movie is about two young men bitten by a travel bug the size of Manhattan. Many of us enjoy travel, even travel to exotic places with some hardship involved. These guys are off-scale in their fascination with the hardest travel to the hardest places. Makes me think of that book

    .#4. These guys must have accumulated tons of footage from their 2 year journey. Only 90 minutes made it into this film.  I expected to be more impressed with the imagery and storytelling/editing. It's done competently and was enough to keep me engaged for 90 minutes but it wasn't stupendous.Overall recommend, and I was satisfied with my purpose of enriching kids' understanding of Polo's journey and also modern geography.

    Tremendously entertaining documentary
  

*by K***G on Reviewed in the United States on March 17, 2012*

Two best friends re-live their incredible 25,000 mile journey followingMarco Polo's fabled routes through the east.They had no crew, no support team, just two guys from Queens, New YorkCity with a bunch of cameras and video equipment in their backpacksslogging alone through unbelievably difficult territory, risking theirlives by crossing into hostile countries without visas, or enteringstrictly forbidden areas. Sometimes they would get stuck in a locationfor weeks before being able to find a way to go on.But these are two tough, as well as endearing dudes. They seemed tomanage to make friends wherever they went, but also to stare downChinese army officers with nothing but a bluff.It's interesting and effective to see these guys, now ten years older,reliving the journey in an interview setting, inter-cut with theirvideo footage and still photographs of the journey. You get both theimmediacy of the events, and the benefit of hindsight and memory.Even though the film is only 90 minutes, it somehow doesn't feelrushed, although I could have happily watched hours more. In fact, myonly complaint is that I wish it was longer so we could have seen evenmore details. Quite unique, and a lot of educational fun.

    A Journey Experiencing Good People Everywhere
  

*by N***H on Reviewed in the United States on January 25, 2016*

An amazing journey. If you pickup one pearl of wisdom from this film it has to be: the world is mostly made up of good people. Expect people to be good, and reciprocate at every opportunity. Not everyone can travel and experience what these two fellows did, but if you are kind, accepting and able to be courteous towards other cultures and customs, you can have similar results from any international trip.I would enjoy seeing a few of the countries they encountered on their journey, especially Iran and Mongolia. It would be fun to visit India, as well.When the journey was taken from 1993 - 1995, the dangers of traveling in some countries was at a high level. However, today, those dangers continue to exist and are even worse in some areas, while in other countries acceptance of westerners (especially Americans) is more common and less hazardous.Enjoy this film. History is fun and travel is a way to live for the moment, remembering the past while anticipating the future.
