Reviews:

Good movie about the human suffering and greed. 5 out of 6 stars [ ? ]

Reviewed by: princet, Tue Jul 17 2007 (Modified: 2007-07-17 15:47:27)

Leonardo DiCaprio once again proves that he is a very strong actor (As long as he stay away from the romantic drama)
Blood Diamond is a movie packed with human suffering in the war struggeling country of Sierra Leone.
Diamond smuggling, slavery, greed, cruelty, death and war all comes together in this action bomb of a movie that point a finger at the western communities greed for African resources.
This movie is must see, and will certainly make an impact.
