Rebellion Against Power

Rating: 8/10 (9 December 2011)

"The battle of Algiers", directed by Gillo Pontecorvo, depicts the implications colonizers face when they encounter resistance. However, Pontecorvo's film unlike many others shows a bilateral side behind the motivations colonizers and rebels have that drives them into battle.
This movie focuses on the Algerian Revolution that began in 1954,as Alegerian people seek to gain independence from France.
This is a wonderful film that takes you on a trip to experience rebellion against power, and can be vividly compare to the U.S. war with Afghanistan.
This movie is filled with suspense from beginning to end.
