4/10
It's OK, but still suffers having Uwe at the helm.

Warning: Spoilers
An excellent premise, with some decent actors so really this should have been far, far better. It has some good moments, and is basically a decent storyline looking at the horror of what went on in Darfur. Unfortunately Uwe Boll's continuing use of the very, very shaky hand held cam really, really spoils this film. Rage was pretty decent, the type of film where the shaky cam actually works quite well but in this it just completely distracts from what is going on. I ended up paying much less attention to what was going on because the shaky cam was just far too distracting and far too annoying. For some reason Uwe also manages to take some decent actors and extract a mediocre performance from them.

At least he is nowhere near as bad a director as Rob Zombie.

Rent this, but don't buy it as the flaws far outweighs the good points.
