Could not watch it.


Don't get me wrong. I enjoy movies on current events but this one was too much for me. I am going to therapy and this movie was a big downer for me and I just didn't need it at this time. One thing I liked was the photography but gave up watching after forty minutes or so.

Boohoo, just because your emotions are on the edge of your sleeves doesnt mean this was or wasnt a good film, those people dont even know what therapy is.

Geez, you act like this person is bashing the film. Maybe they're giving us some info that we don't need or may not have anything to do with the film, but don't yell at someone for something they weren't doing. You're right, they don't have therapy. They probably don't have computers. Should you stop using yours? Should you feel badly because you do?

You're all pathetic, I'm gonna back up the gangster here.
O.P. is the reason this country is going to *beep*, you can't even handle the real life raging out there much less your own. Going to your little therapy, taking your little happy pills.
Like gangster said, these people don't even know that kind of weakness.
Don't be a pansy, understand the real world has pain and suffering, maybe understand your problems are probably menial and frivilous in the face of that insanity or understand there are things you can take into your own hands if you want. Guns exist, banks exist, people exist. Put two and two together and get yourself a plan before someone else does. ;D

Yeah, the man who risked his life making this documentary would love the way you are talking. OP might have been a bit misguided in posting that kind of remark (he/she certainly didn't know what they'd be in for here, with you gentle lambs.)
It is very graphic, (no spoiler necessary), and IMO that's precisely what should compel any decent person to do whatever they can to help. It did that for me.

People don't want to look at things like this, and this is because mass murders/genocides are profoundly effecting. Such events are not like wars where there is a certain understanding as to why people are dying. What is happening in the Darfur region of Sudan is wholesale slaughter and as mentioned before that is difficult to stomach/deal with psychologically. However difficulty in dealing with said events is no excuse in not acting. I personally have the suspicion that China is one the reasons there is little action, either that or just plain laziness on the part of the international community.

This was such a powerful and hard to watch movie! For those interested in seeing another great and honest film based on the atrocities being committed in Darfur, you HAVE to see Attack on Darfur. It really opened my eyes to what's happening around the world.
