CommentsXp Best movie ever!
Matrixiole Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.
TrueHello Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.
cwhite_realtor The movie in itself was very good The performances were not so bad But there is NO WAY I would have the same reaction as that mother did in the end.
brownthrasher-25554 Forest Whitaker gives an incredible performance of Desmond Tutu. He takes the form of Tutu in the way he stands, the voice and the mannerisms. Her took his big self and made himself a near perfect recreation of the real Tutu (Real Tutu is 86!). There are some slow spots but the plot is quite good. Other remarkable characters and performances. Highly recommend.
sutherland-pierre The story of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission should be required viewing as far as I'm concerned. The actors and director clearly care about this story and they have told it well. I'm a white South African with family that were in the police and military during this time. I think this movie is incredibly well done. Don't worry about the camera angles and makeup; just watch, enjoy, and maybe even learn something. My favourite exchange: "Do you know what Paradise Lost is?" "A nightclub?" "No, you clutch plate. It's a poem... about me!" Cheers, Pierre
stefankarlssoncom I just had to see this since i saw it on imdb having higher than +5 in total. i tried to follow and watch it but its poor preformance by actors and the guys filming must have been drunk all the time, there is no steady shot even when they are sitting still.the director has tried sell this movie on the fact that people are going to feel sorry for africa once again yet not much substance is put in the move other than voilence here and there. really appalling.
