EnsimmĂ€isenĂ€ paikalle saapunut tutkija haluaa ihan oikeasti löytÀÀ kasvin tieteen nimissĂ€ hyvÀÀ tarkoittaen. HyvĂ€n tarkoittaminen ei kuitenkaan johda siihe"
" Notes: I wasnât disappointed, thatâs for sure. To be honest, I still think the structure was actually rather straightforward though. Indeed, it was pretty much following the standard road-trip formula with the traditional rules of the genre including 2 characters from different backgrounds clashing during their travel. Still, beside this rather standard structure, it was such a fascinating and rather unique look on the Amazon and the people living there. Above all, the thing I probably lo"

“Even though it is a rather obscure feature, since I kept hearing some great things about this flick, my father especially loved it, I was really eager to check the damned thing. Well, I wasnât disappointed, thatâs for sure. To be honest, I still think the structure was actually rather straightforward though.
