Enjoyable adventure film, about four men and a woman in Africa, with different agendas in their minds. Although some sources claim this version is the most faithful to H.R. Haggard's novel, many changes were made, including the addition of a female protagonist, not as a decorative figure, but as the key character that triggers the expedition to find King Solomon's mines. Allegedly, one screenwriter objected to this change and left production. Exciting as it is, this would have been much better without a couple of unnecessary songs performed by star Paul Robeson.
