The full emotional gambit

Rating: 10/10 (6 September 2006)

This film is stark and to the point of everything that is wrong in the world today. It is as true now as it was in 2001 as it was in 1990, 1965, 1945, 1917 and so on an so fourth. This film made me laugh, it made me shout and it left me feeling angry and helpless. In short it make you feel! It is well acted and directed and haunts you long after the final scene. The underlying message is that it all boils down to communication. If one does not understand what is being said how can anyone offer help or come to any kind of agreement. Even when the characters communicate through a secondary language, they can't know what is being said, as they do not understand the history or culture of their presumed enemy or friend. This film shines a bright light on this often over looked fact and exposes those who think that they are there to help. How can you help if you do not understand the problem.
