Cruelty free message.

Rating: Null/10 (24 February 2007)

What happens when an innocent African fisherman (Djimon Hounsou), forced to work as a slave and whose family has been taken from him by war lords, finds a priceless pink diamond and buries it. In a word, WAR! Leonardo DiCaprio is a former soldier turned mercenary who, with his own African blood makes a deal to help find the fisherman's family in exchange for a share of the diamond's value. With an American journalist helping his cause and all kinds of war lords, private armies and thugs in pursuit, 'Blood Diamond' has a cruelty free message about what is harvested from the earth and the responsibility people have for making humane choices. Explosive action, greed, compassion, determination and very adult entertainment all have a place in this blistering movie that you can't take your eyes off.
