I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.
hyped garbage
The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.
The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.
It was fun, exciting and actually fast paced. I don't know what was one of the comments saying. Great movie
This is a nice movie.. It's not pretentious. It's more about self-realization, and interactions with people.. The movie is very well cast, and dialog well constructed. There are several supporting roles, which are quite interesting. The thing about this movie I really liked and it really doesn't happen that much anymore, Is that I felt like I got to know the characters, and I cared and liked them. They each are working their way thru their own issues, which are not really the focus of the movie (or is it?)I do wish they explored the parents more, especially Melonie Griffith. It could have added even more to this gem. Too many movies these day are just lame. Or they try and clobber you over the head, with visuals, super-powers, end of the world threats. This movie is entertaining, but also has points to think about it. It made me go and read up about Somalia, which has an amazing story to it's very long existence. In short, this movie, entertained, informed, and made me think about things. something so rarely accomplished anymore.
Well guyz if u'r interesting in bio movies then watch this movie
Very well knit and exciting movie about Somalia, captures the culture and people very efficiently. Great lead character and support as well. Al Pacino's appearance was very adequate as well. The overall story telling style was very entertaining and felt fresh continuously.
