By content, yes. By title, no.

Rating: 7/10 (24 June 2012)

This film has one wrapped tight from the first frame. Any film depicting a true conflict has a certain power, but its limits are defined by the mastery of the film making. Jolie does a splendid job here in maintaining a balance between the atrocities of war and the tenderness of humanity. My only complaint is with the title. Bosnia is not well-known as a producer of honey. At least some mention in the film of honey production would've made sense in the context of the film's title. Not only was there not a scene of honey production, the filmmaker missed a great opportunity for a profound allegory...one simply made by connecting the story to the title. A little nit-picky, I know, but it would have made a significant difference in the film's emotional impact.
