Very convincing and painful to watch

Rating: 9/10 (20 October 2015)

Very difficult to watch at times as it is so harrowing but this is a must see film that brings home the viciousness and terror of war. Iris Elba was very brave to take this part and his acting and that of all the cast is top notch.
Made on a low budget by today's standards it has the gloss of a Hollywood film and the rawness of an Indy. Hollywood will never tackle such difficult subjects with the same aplomb. Politicians in the West and the East need to watch this and begin to understand the tragedy that is still unfolding in parts of Africa.
I highly recommend this film.
