    I watched this video in class, and let me tell you! This video was truly a political Thriller!!! It has the drama and the history to make this movie an impactful masterpiece!!! However, in comparison to other movies... It was trash. The movie’s plot is all over the place, and the movie’s actor’s just don’t seem like they wanted to be there. Sorry, but overall, this movie was pretty awful, and always seemed to lack entertainment!!! Tea has been spilled

    This movie shows mankind’s true capacity for evil but also how one person’s heroic actions can save thousands. Very well made and realistic.

    It’s does a good job of telling true facts but also making a great movie. It’s cultural importance to the sub divide of Africans every where. European colonialism brought about new wars and divisions amongst Africans. Here calling and saying the Tutsi are whites(elite class) caused a strong riff that previously didn’t exist. Look at the rage birthed from it. In the United States Europeans calling Africans colored Negro N@gga and Black. Birthed the idea of two ethnic groups light skin VS dark skin. Field Negro bs House Negro. Anytime I watch this movie I empathize to younger and older viewers about identity and foreign identities that causes non natural riffs

    This movie was superb in how it told the true story of what was going on & still going on (sadly) in the world. iTunes, another must see that I hope you'll add to the list is "Sometimes In April" another superb film the documented the atrocities in Rwanda. Please add that movie to your library ITunes!

    I had to watch this for my 8th grade Genocide and Social Justice class and I was hesitant at first to watch it. I've never really taken a big interest on what happens around the world but this movie really opened my eyes. It moved me and inspired me to get involved. This movie showed me that there are problems outside of America and that the stories we all hear about, the ones about mass killings and uprisings, they are real. It's a great movie and a must see.
