Marvelous movie! Aside from a great performance by Rachel Weisz as the feisty wife of a British diplomat, what is so good about this movie is that it takes place in Africa, or more specifically, Kenya. It portrays Kenya for what it is, in a very different way from typical documentaries or movies.

It is also an excellent adaptation of the book by John Le Carre.

Yeah, you have to concentrate. Yeah, you have to actually watch the film rather than do your nails, wait for a pizza or y’know chat on the phone with friends. Sorry about that.

This is a wonderfully rich film that explores the the dynamics of a relationship, alongside the machinations of the International Aid Industry, Pharmaceutical gangsters and the innefectual diplomatic framework in place in Africa. It’s a political film that has no easy answers.

It doesn’t have a craaazy guy falling for a kooky Starbucksy Jennifer Aniston character in an urban setting of privileged banality: it’s a reminder that the world is a rough place and some people make a lot of money out of that fact.

Go see.

Friends With Money Go To Africa and Lose the Irony.

Boring!!!

i don’t know, i just couldn’t get into this one. i liked the way the film was shot, but it was kind of confusing. i think it’s the kind of movie to watch when you can sit down with no distractions. my pizza got delievered during the movie and i was lost. you have to pay attention.

I fell asleep while first watching this movie, so I used the date that I finished it. Even though I watched it in “pieces” I was still really moved by this movie. It was poignant and I loved the cinematography. I cried at the end. It evoked a lot of emotion and in my book that’s a great movie.

This was an excellent film. The artistry of camera shots, angles, and locations in addition to the acting gave this film a very intimate setting. Furthermore it was a very good script, utilizing a well-articulated political commentary.

I tried, but after an hour I was bored out of my skull. Didn’t work for me. Can’t tell you exactly why, jsut a sense of ‘seen this all before’.
