Editorial Review:
Part potboiler, part work of conscience, Fire on the Amazon is a cheesy but effective drama set against the ecological disaster of South America's disappearing rain forest. As these tropical-topical movies often go, the story is told through the adventures of outsiders, in this case a cynical photojournalist (Craig Sheffer) and a dedicated activist (Sandra Bullock), both from America. After initial skirmishes, the good-looking pair find themselves immersed in a growing war between a corrupt army and an organized, well-armed resistance mounted by indigenous people. Much sadness and outrage follow as the innocent are decimated along with the land, and this season of grief brings our protagonists together in love. The film's notorious if rarely seen erotic interlude, both in its R-rated and unrated versions, is hardly perfunctory, yet director Luis Llosa (Anaconda) shoots it as a piece of soft-core fluff. Credit that to executive producer Roger Corman, the legendary showman who knows how to sell even the most serious low-budget production with a hint of schlock. Fire on the Amazon was originally made in 1990 and its release was delayed several years, finally prompted by Bullock's rising stature in Hollywood. She's actually quite good in it, as is Sheffer, and their respective fans would probably enjoy the actors' performances. --Tom Keogh

Fire on the Amazon [Region 2] Reviews:
If you're buying this for the plot, don't bother...
2008-01-23 - This is an awful movie. No plot, terrible acting (even by Ms. Bullock, who is one of my favorite actors), and even bad lighting and camera angles on the one scene you're probably getting this movie to see. The two stars are simply because this is the first and probably only film in which Sandra is actually buck naked-- not that you can really see anything of substance, but it's a novelty when an A-lister like Sandra takes it all off. If owning her one and only skin flick is your goal, buy it. Otherwise, just admire her beauty fully clothed in one of her good movies.

ADULTS
2007-03-26 - I FOUND THIS SHOCKING, AND HARD TO BELIEVE THAT SANDRA BULLOCK, WOULD EVEN
CONSIDER DOING SUCH A PICTURE. IT NEEDS TO BE BANNED AS ALL NUDITIY SCENE
SHOULD BE. I CAN'T UNDERSTAND HOW PRODUCERS CAN ASKED STARS TO PROFORM SUCH ACTS, NOR CAN I UNDERSTAND THE MORALS OF PEOPLE THAT CONSIDER THEMSELVES STARS TO AGREE TO DO SUCH THINKS. PEOPLE IN THE MOVIE MAKING
BUSINESS HAVE NO MORALS. YOU USE TO SEE TWO PEOPLE WALK INTO A BEDROOM,
CLOSE THE DOOR AND YOU WERE LEFT WITH YOUR OWN IMAGANATION.

Sandra Bullock movie
2007-02-19 - I really like Sandra Bullock as an actress, but this is not one of her best. It is OK, but you might want to rent it once before you decide to buy it for your collection.

Sandra Bullock in the nude, before she became rich and famous.
2006-09-25 - I read that Sandra tried to snuff distribution of this film after she became rich and famous. So I just had to see what I'm not supposed to see. And she is so gorgeous, wouldn't it be nice to see her nude? I made sure to get the unrated and uncut version; I have never seen the cut version, so I cannot advise on the difference. The movie is actually a loser, but fast forward to her nude lovemaking scene (after she and her lover succumb to the influence and effects of a powerful potion that the natives gave them to drink) and it is this nude scene that makes the movie worth seeing. I would only give the movie one star, but to see Sandra nude has gotta be 5 stars.

If you're watching this for the plot, don't waste your time...
