It is a beautiful story of freedom
This is extremely important in our lives, many of our countries have gone through some dictatorship at some point and our freedom and right to vote is taken away from us. This film shows you a reality.What happens in many countries or what happened is sad to see how their own people kill their people just because of a sick dictator It's an extremely good story, it made me cry and scared me, it's somewhat realistic, sorry if I repeat the word realistic because it is, it makes you think about many things. And it shows you how we humans are sometimes and how we kill each other. It's a story that makes you realize what a dictator does and that the army doesn't always take care of its people.Was this review helpful to you?
The acting is superb. I believed everyone, and how they reacted to the situations where so real. Sometimes in movie you'll think 'Hell no, nobody would respond like that'. Well in this movie they will show you how you really would respond in such situation.
You are going to feel with the characters. You will sometimes smile (tiny funny parts in the movie, but they are really acceptable) and in others you will hold in your breath.
The story is sad, really, really sad because this is a movie based on a real event. And when you didn't know about this (me from the EU) you'll get interested in the movie and will do some investigations, at least I did.
But in the movie, I'd loved some more background information, maybe that would have made the movie better.
Anyway this is a really good movie, you won't regret watching this!
