4.0

Movie Rating

The four-handed set-up (though other characters, and a number of wobbly flashbacks, intrude) may well recall Yasmina Reza’s acrid couple-combat in her play God of Carnage. If you thought that foursome were rotten eggs, get a load of this lot.

The footage is brutal and often hard to watch (the executions are horrifying and the indoctrination of children is plain sinister). The film excels at portraying the danger the reporters face and the value of the information they get out of the country.

I wanted to read this after seeing Kate Summerscale at the Hay Festival talking about the book. I found that I felt very different at the end of the talk to how I felt at the beginning!

A really interesting story and Robert Coombs becomes a real person to the reader across the book.

This would be a good read if you are interested in social history and/or psychology.
