Tears Of The Sun DVD

Advantages: Sucks you deeper as film progresses, action gradually increases.
Disadvantages: Tails off slightly at the very end.

The film starts off with news footage taken from the time of the civil unrest in nigeria which show some quite disturbing images, the film them dips into a typical action film for a while before Bruce Willis and co. start their long hike with the refugees. As the film progesses the scenes get more graphic and the team get more attached to the african people. Fantastic for people who like action with a strong emotional hook in there too, it also raises ...
...over the top and theres lots, i mean lots of action towards the end. The acting is quite good for the most part of the film as each character underplays the role to a good extent until the very end when Bruce Willis needs to have his meaning pause covered in blood as the wounded hero.

Advantages: nailbiting drama.
Disadvantages: sometimes to gory for specific audiences.

I think that Bruce Willis is a great actor in this film, I have this film myself and it is great, if you are into war movies and action movies then this is your film. There are some disturbing scenes but that is nothing compared to the great graphical scened of Bruce Willis and the way the film is directed. The other actors in this film are also magnificant but as per usual Bruce Willis stands out ten times better. It is action packed with non-stop ... Read review
