Read All About It!!! March 17th, 2008This is just my 5 minutes and my opinion on some of the reviews I have read on the movie. I think most of us are missing the point.
Ever since I watched the movie on SABC 3 I have read up on the subject and I have read so many reviews. And I get that people are reviewing the movie. I see that they take every single detail and they rip the directors off. But let me tell you what I think.
The movie I assume and hope was written and directed to create awareness. And that is exactly what it did to me. I was made aware of this subject through the movie and it struck a cord in me that I never thought possible.
I took from the movie exactly what it set out to achieve. Awareness of the issue. And I was moved, up to a point where I would actually dedicate a lot of my time to blog about it, copy reviews for people to see that traffic through my blog space and write my own poems about it.
So who cares if Angelina didnt suite the role, let her be IT IS HER AWARENESS. Just like BONO does AIDS AWARENESS ect. Who cares about the love story, most people dont watch documentries, or at least dont enjoy them and maybe this was a way to keep people watching.
Come on people get the message and forget the detail. It was pretty easy for me, an ordinary South African, who was ignorant to the news and politics. I was totally engulfed in the issues that the kids and their parents and the aid workers faced in the movie. The message was so load and clear and heartbreaking.
So thanks Angie and her team I appreciate the movie and it totally changed my life.
And I hope the critical others will soon see the light.
