Editorial Review:
This sequel to 1984's rip-snorting romantic-adventure, Romancing the Stone, is a moderately entertaining tale that pales by comparison to its predecessor. Romance novelist Kathleen Turner and retired soldier-of-fortune Michael Douglas return as a now-complacent couple. Bored with life on a yacht, they find excitement thrust upon them when she accepts a speaking engagement in the Middle East. Once there, she is abducted and finds herself involved with the "jewel" everyone is chasing. Douglas teams up once more with Danny DeVito to rescue his love. Less charming and more predictable than the original, this suffers for one simple reason: the characters have nowhere to go. 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. --Rochelle O'Gorman
The Jewel of the Nile Reviews:
Pleasing sequal 
2009-11-29 - Jewel of the Nile is not as funny and entertaining as Romancing the stone, but it does provide good action, good acting and lots of laughs and entertainment. I would definitely recommend this movie for anyone looking for a couple of hours of adventure!
Fun movie.
2009-08-24 - "Jewel of the Nile" is a fun follow up to "Romancing the Stone". It is not nearly as good as the orginal, but worth watching on its own merit. Michael Douglas and Kathleen Turner sparing, then romancing, are great to watch. The shooting locations, action and humor are icing on the cake.
The Jewel of the Nile 
2009-04-28 - Definitely not as good as the first, but still worth watching. I loved Romancing the Stone, and seeing what comes after Joan's "happily ever after" was fun.
