A Must See Powerful, Moving, and Stunning

Rating: 10/10 (20 January 2007)

Strap on your seat belt and be prepared to feel profound emotion. This is a very powerful movie that reveals the evil and the good in all. I was captivated by the pace of the movie. If Djimon Hounsou is passed over for Best Supporting Actor I will be very disappointed, he plays a phenomenal role that will cause you to break out in goose bumps as well as shed tears. In one movie or another this should be Leonard Dicaprio's year, he is worthy of Best Actor Consideration in Blood Diamonds, he portrays his role as a mercenary/diamond smuggler flawlessly. The movie is graphically violent but NOT in a meaningless way. This Movie will make you want to hide your diamond jewelry in shame. This movie is not for children under 17.
