La dur réalité d'un pays sans importance pour l'homme (blanc) qui ne cherche que la fortune...,
This review is from: The Last King of Scotland (DVD)
' Il aurait mérité de mourir mais il fut plus utile vivant que mort' On le croirait lui un blanc qui raconte !'J'ai toujours eu beaucoup de misère avec la violence et encore plus sans doutes avec celle qui se passe en Afrique car là bas elle est souvent (toujours) ignoré par le reste du monde car elle ne rapporte pas assez, qu'est-ce que l'économie mondiale peut bien en avoir a foutre que plus de 300 000 ougandais soient mort sous le régime de ce tyran ? Un film qui est certes très dur et nous fait encore voir les horreurs que l'Afrique a subit bien trop souvent dans son histoire, mais n'oublions pas que c'est en apprenant de nos erreurs que l'on risque de ne pas les refaire' donc il est important de les savoir et de ne pas se voiler le visage encore une fois ! Juste pour cela ce film mérite d'être vue' si pour vous cela ne vous semble pas important c'est que sans doute votre part d'humanité aura été vendu au mercantilisme de notre belle philosophie capitaliste ! (Et venez pas me dire que l'argent et guerre non pas rapport' c'est avec le pouvoir les 3 choses qui règneront sans doutes a jamais, malheureusement, sur ce bas monde')

Just Stunning!,

This review is from: The Last King of Scotland (Full Screen) (DVD)
This movie is based on the events of the brutal Ugandan dictator Idi Amin and his increasingly erratic behaviour. Forest Whitaker is brilliant in acting the role of Idi Amin. He is sure to win an award for this one! He had to act the jolly fellow one minute and the mad man the next minute. He used the media to his advantage as his regime slaughtered hundreds of thousands of his countrymen.James McAvoy who plays the part of Dr. Nicholas Garrigan is also very good. Watching Amin and the young doctor throw themselves in the shower of power is both frightening and revolting. This movie was filmed in Uganda which makes it that much more credible. It's a fantastic movie with a great cast, but some of the scenes are not for the faint-hearted. It's the kind of movie that makes you see what power can do to men. It also makes you see how different things are in other countries, how they can think differently and how their toleration and endurance is tested daily...
