Amid the explosive civil war ovetaking 1999 Sierra Leone, these men join for two desperate missions: recovering a rare pink diamond of immense value and rescuing the fisherman's son, conscripted as a child soldier into the brutal rebel forces ripping a swath of torture and bloodshed across the alternately beautiful and ravaged countryside. can you still remember this movie?

Yes, I've seen the movie. It's not e very impressive movie, but I can't say it's a bad movie either. I enjoyed watching it so it wasn't a waste of time.

all of us have different criteria to judge a movie...might be it is good for the others and not good to us. LOL...anyway it's a sort of entertainment no matter the story is all about but i know you smile and touch a little while. thanks for the comments.

I have seen this and is a good movie. Just enough action and drama to make it good for a wide variey of viewers. At the same time it brings attention to a very real aspect of life in Africa.

I haven't yet seen this move but it is on my to see list. Sometimes it takes movies like this to bring home the horror of what is going on in the world around us. We need to put pressure on the United Nations to do more to stop this kind of horror. It breaks one's heart to know that kids are used this way and to know that people are being killed in [place like Kenya and Dufar just because they are from different tribes and the leaders don't seem to care about their people.

yes we can pressure U.N. to support the declaration on STOP KILLING...i think you point out the the story of Hotel Rwanda which was very negative response to the public...we have an equal rights to live so one is allowed to kill anybody but the story of Hotel Rwanda is different...war against majority and minority tribes...i condemned those acts....thanks for the comment.

I've seen the movie and although it's got a Hollywood twist it touched a soft part of my heart. I felt so bad for the children being exploited as soldiers and they get to kill at a very young age. Also because of the movie it made me refused to buy diamonds from Africa.
