I found other reviews here very revealing about the minds & intellect of others. This is not an action movie made up to shock & impress with sfx. This is based on the true story of LDS missionaries & their effort to escape Liberia at the beginning of the civil war & get to Sierra Leone. The conversations were real, as were the fears & worries & concerns of the missionaries. Would they get to safety or would they be shot & killed? There is very little gore in this film which actually disappointed some viewers! Instead we are presented with a story of missionaries traveling on the old run down roads watching out for pot holes & rebels all the way. If you want to experience the fear & trauma that has plagued so many people in different places with a sense of the poverty & challenges, then this is the film for you. A moving triumph of the connection between humanity & compassion & dealing with real life.
