DVD Reviews of Beyond Borders (Widescreen Edition)
DVD Review: One of my favorite movies...
Summary: 4 Stars
I love this movie. It's really sad and could be depressing to some, but I love this movie. Clive Owen perfectly depicts the stressed out, stretched-two-thin, aid worker attitude. This movie shows real depictions of the mess that is refugee camps. They never have enough funds, workers, or food and are constantly stressing to help others. This movie is intense, tense and may be difficult to watch for some but it shows the real hardships of aid workers and the refugees.
The end is sad but most of the movie is too.
However, the sadness is expertly acted and not without reason.
Very good movie.
DVD Review: choosing the high road
Summary: 5 Stars
I loved Beyond Borders and watched it twice in one day. This story about relief aid workers, individuals giving up comfort and security, safety and love to help suffering people around the world puts our Western world priorities in perspective. The love story within the political story is memorable because the lovers were driven by something greater than their own pleasure. DVD Review: Much needed exposure to this subject!
Summary: 5 Stars
I LOVED this movie! But then I always wanted to be a relief worker (until I grew up and didn't want to die). I know, it sounds crazy. They risk everything to help people less fortunate than themselves. I have much more respect for Angelina Jolie now. This movie is not for people who love fairytale's.DVD Review: Unavailable after ordering
Summary: 1 Stars
I ordered this item and then afterwards was told that it was not available from that seller. So I re-ordered from another seller - that is why you see two of the same. I hope that I was reimbursed for the first order as I never received. Barbara GilbreathDVD Review: DVD Beyond Borders
Summary: 3 Stars
The movie arrived promptly and in excellent condition.I was unaware that there would be no cover for it, that was a bit disappointing.
Description of Beyond Borders (Widescreen Edition)
An English socialite gives up her luxurious lifestyle when she falls in love with a doctor and follows him to Africa, to help those suffering in poverty.Genre: Feature Film-Drama
Rating: R
Release Date: 20-DEC-2005
Media Type: DVD
Romantic adventure, marital crisis, and the tragedy of global hunger are combined with mixed but respectable results in Beyond Borders, starring Angelina Jolie in a role that reflects her off-screen efforts as a United Nations goodwill ambassador. Jolie plays a naive American socialite, unhappily married and living in London, whose life is revolutionized when a passionate doctor (Clive Owen, replacing original costar Kevin Costner) draws her into the cause of humanitarian aid in the world's most dangerous political hot-spots including Ethiopia, Cambodia (where Jolie adopted her first child), and Chechnya in the 1980s and '90s. Directed by Martin (Goldeneye) Campbell, who replaced Oliver Stone during troubled pre-production, this well-meaning film suffers from schizophrenic priorities: Is it a globetrotting love story? An impassioned political expos?? Powerful scenes and fine performances can't entirely offset the film's identity crisis, and the ending strives for a quality of martyrdom that it doesn't really earn. --Jeff Shannon
