Blood Diamond

Not at all unlike the stories I've heard from people formerly involved in the "trade" so to speak...  Blood Diamond provokes serious thought by shedding some light on the reality of what goes behind the scene and for that reason, makes it an important film.  Everyone should see this film.

Imagine that....a lot of violence and blood in a movie called Blood Diamond. :duh:

Anyways.....this is how it is in real life....so why would anyone want to water it down as far as the violence.
My wife will probably not be asking for a  new diamond for some time after seeing this one.

She did however donate 500.00 to the World Hunger charity after seeing this.....so obviously this movie had an impact....besides the great acting.

Violence?  What violence?  I must have missed that part.  Perhaps I should see it again.

I thought the movie was good, not great, but good. I would love to of called it great but frankly the tale it told about Leonardo was simply to predictable, it was like watching Tears of the Sun or something that was way more original, again. If it was not for that, which I am not actually going to complain about if it is based on a real story, as it was a bit heart wrenching when he died, I would say it was a fairly great movie. It was just very well done, good acting, the violence excessive well "T I A" and the truth is they do way worse things then what was shown in the movie. I was impressed that with the length of the movie I was never bored of it. It was good, but a little too classic with Leonardo and his story - out for self - badass - shows heart at the end - dies. Well truth be told in dire times the best of people can come out.
