A must watch for history lovers.

Rating: 8/10 (31 May 2014)

Hotel Rwanda is one of those movies that I had quite a tough time rating. Picking between a 7, 8 or 9 was very difficult. As you see I picked an 8. Here's why. The movie was well filmed, well written, extremely well acted and well edited, but I found that the pacing was a little bit slow at some points. Other then that, this was quite an excellent movie. As always, Don Cheadle excelled in his part as the hotel manager. One of the things that was so very appealing about this film was the fact that the story that they told actually happened. And it's hard to believe that many of us never even heard about it. There is also something to be said about the real-life human being that Don Cheadle portrayed. The hotel manager was such an interesting and caring man, that is always a plus in my books when I'm looking for a lead role. So in conclusion, I should just say that this film is really good and you should at least watch the trailer to find out what you think.
