Hotel Rwanda

[General_Peanut]

I just watched Hotel Rwanda with my roomate and i have to say it was the best and one of the most emotional movies i have ever seen. if you have not seen it yet, i definatley reccomend it. Don Cheadle, one of my favorite actors, deserved the Oscar for this movie. it was absolutley amazing.

Very good movie. They did a great job of conveying the horror without resorting to a lot of blood and gore.

I thought that it was a powerful movie that dealt a lot with our obligations as humans to other, sufferign human sand the plight that they are experiencing. It was an important film to watch because it really did represent the suffering that can exist in the world, and the inefficiency in handling it.

It really struck on the absurdity of the world in general at certain parts (you know what I am talking about).

It was a terrific movie.

It's the kind of movie that really makes you want to re-think how you live your life and the things you complain about.

Amen to that! I highly recommend it myself! Excellent flick!

My roommate watched this by himself while I was off working out or something and recommended it. I gathered together about 4 girls to watch it with me and by the end of the movie 3 had left because they were so emotional about the movie. I myself and the final girl were both left saying "Wow..." at the end - an amazing movie and so terrifically moving to portray the suffering and terror survived by those portrayed. I very highly recommend it as well.

I have the DVD. You get to see the real Paul Rusesabagina and hear his commentary about the events that took place. It helps to bring the reality of the massacre to a whole new level.

Hotel Rwanda was a great a movie and it is one of those top emotional movies for me, and I usually am indifferent when it comes to movies that are supposed to bring on emotion. I think along with Crash, they are the two best movies I've seen in the past month.

Friends of mine who spent two years in Rwanda running an orphanage after the genocide also enjoyed it.
It was filmed here in Joburg - stopped traffic a good few times!

 

[akasmom]

just saw it this week - terrific in a terrible way. I just wept afterwards. I used to work for Amnesty Int'l. years ago, hadn't been affected like that since those days.

 

[Glorianna]

Yes, it was definitely a good movie. It's so sad that things like that happen without the people in richer countries like Canada, the USA, and England doing much to help.

i think i've told more people about this film than any film i've seen so far,even the Passion of the Christ which speaks for itself.i feel almost compelled to tell my friends to watch hotel rwanda so they know and see what happened,whats still probably a threat with these 2 tribes and to be thankful for living in america.the actor don cheadle was so believable he puts you right there,and right there was a scary,sad and horrible feeling.i too wept.especially the bus scene,as some could go and others left behind. a 10 on the film scale.

I've wanted to see it, but I'm currently trapped in Broken Hill, and it won't come here until DVD or video. I never know how to feel about genocide films, it is certainly hard to capture it's scope on film without becoming stereotypical or biased about it. But I still want to see it.

The Hutus are still causing trouble. The ones that were forced out of Rwanda and relocated in the Congo are still killing and raping people in the Congo right now as we speak.

And it was just by CHANCE that I heard about this.
