Riveting movie

Rating: 8/10 (11 October 2008)

I had this movie from Netflix for 6 weeks before I finally watched it. I regretted I hadn't watched it sooner. I thought it was going to be a heavy handed political drama and I wasn't sure I wanted to watch it, but yet I wanted to see what the movie was about.
I'm really really glad I did. This movie kept me riveted to the screen for the entire 2 hours. I don't know how to review this movie without giving the plot away, so I'll just say that this movie is riveting, informative, compelling...you will not look at diamonds the same way again.
Leo, Djamen (sp?) and Jennifer were outstanding. I thoroughly recommend it. Now I'm going to go Google Siera Leone and the diamond conflicts.
