if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.

Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.

If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

I really do not understand why imdb grades so underrated for this film. First of all this film is very well done in every aspects. Very real, very touching, you can witness all the cruelty, also demonstrates how they even use their own employees for the sole purpose of the so-called aid agencies, every body after something only some people really fights to save some lifes even though there is not much escaping from this reality until there is not much to steal any more resources remain in Africa.
This film also one of the best documents ever made about African suffering as well as with the suberb acting of Charlize Theron & Javier Bardem you can feel what it is like to be there againist everything. Story very well written as well.
Well done all, whoever conribute to this film deserves more. I hope they can have another chances to make more films in same quality.

First let me be honest, this film is shot in a documentary style immersion, so if this subject matter is not in any way of interest to you then yes you will likely find it boring.Now, to the negative reviews! "White Savior" really? YOU HAVE NO CLUE WHAT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT! Speaking from years of personal experience, Refugee and Disaster Relief Volunteer, First Responder, and Crisis Area Management Volunteer and not just Africa, Three other continents with (gasp) White people who need help as well! THIS IS A VERY REALISTIC Depiction OF OUR LIVES! Ignorance doesn't even begin to cover the absurdity of you're comments and reviews. MOST of the volunteers are not even Caucasian, we don't just volunteer in war torn countries in Africa (i.e. Bosnian genocide, Ukrainian Occupatiin, Chechneya, Paraguay) and we come from all over the World, speaking every language known to man. You think we work days at a time without sleep, often not eating, putting our lives in danger every day because we want to be "saviors" LOL? Or wait you think we get paid? We get glory? Our family's support our choice not have a family or relationships, returning home for brief moments and try to reconnect with a world we can't Understand anymore? I'm sure if this film was based in Iraq with what you deem "the real hero's" to be, you would be praising your strong Marines right? The people that get paid a nice hefty sum of money to shoot big guns at civilians in a country that never instigated a war so that the US government can get rich off Weapons Manufacturers Payouts?NO WE Don't GET ANY MEDALS! We don't get our names in the paper, we pay our own money to Volunteer, and we don't get buried in Arlington Cemetery. We are lucky if our body is sent back home and we often don't care. BECAUSE WE ARE NOT HEROS! HEROS ARE THE 10 yr old Boys that hold on to life with 4 bullet wounds so they can look after the smaller siblings that survived after his family was murdered. HEROS are the 8 yr old girls that have been raped repeatedly by grown men, trying so hard to make sense of what's left of their youth and innocence so they can help other girls like them. So unless you actually have some experience walking a day in my shoes, or one minute in theirs, I suggest you stick to reviewing "American Sniper"

Hard to watch and listen to. It's graphic so not for the timid. Sound quality is awful. The actors whisper in intimate scenes so the volume must be set high in order to hear them. Which makes the noises painfully loud during the action sequences. The sound editor was definitely asleep at the switch.The pacing is lopsided. Plot changes gears more than a semi-truck driver in the mountains. The viewer is bounced from one unresolved / open ended scene to the next. Too much screen time is wasted trying to force introspection on the viewers. The aid helicopter slowly lifts off and backs away from the crowd of hopeless people with a few clinging to the helicopter's landing skids. It hovers until after the last person has fallen off the helicopter and back into the crowd. It then slowly, flies forward over the crowd just out of arms reach. In sum western corporations are bad, citizens of the developed world are bad for not doing more to help and the aid workers didn't enjoy their summer vacation. Just wait for the director's cut to be released all the vehicles will have Anti- Trump bumper stickers.

This is the best movie I've ever seen. I do not watch comedies or romantic cheap movies. I like the movies which tells the truth and about philosophy, sociology, world, etc. This is a film which gives the message with philosophy and shows sociological problems about world. Everyday thousands of people dies for the people who lives in luxury! Some people lives a very poor life for making more rich the richest people in the world! This movie says the truth! Just watch it and make your decision your self. This movie is the best movie I've ever seen. I say it again because it shows the truth!
