DVD Reviews of Hotel Rwanda

DVD Review: Breathe taking
Summary: 5 Stars

Don Cheadle is excellent in this. I would recommend this to any one who has doubts about Don Cheadles acting ability. He takes this story to a level higher to capture the audience and drag you into the story to feel the characters emotional state.

DVD Review: Inspiring
Summary: 5 Stars

What this man did was amazing!! Almost 7 billion peoples on this planet...If each one of us could do just 1/100th of what he did, this world could be an absolutly amazing place!
Watch the movie - be inspired and learn !

DVD Review: Horrible Service!!!
Summary: 1 Stars

I strongly recommend that you NOT do any business with this individual. The first time I played this DVD, I discovered a scratch (or "skip") or whatever. The point is, it had some damage. Although I sent at least THREE E-mail messages to "mama mea" (over a period of about one week) I NEVER heard from her. She NEVER contacted me, so I was unable to obtain directions on how to "return"/"exchange" the damaged item. I was stuck with it. Do business with this individual ONLY AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!

DVD Review: Hotel Rwanda
Summary: 5 Stars

After reading Cross Country by James Patterson I wanted to find out more about the genocide in Africa and a friend suggested this movie. It is excellent and gave me another look at this horrible situation.

DVD Review: Hotel Rwanda is the "anti-Gandhi"
Summary: 5 Stars

What is "anti-Gandhi"?

Well, it meant that the native colonial middle class whom had assisted the colonial power to subjugate the native masses forever and forever, better hope the colonial power and her military and European connections do not leave town, else the masses might rise up and slaughter the "traitors", as they would be seen as in the post-colonial world. Unless of course they themselves become brutal and oppressive...

Description of Hotel Rwanda

Once you find out what happened in Rwanda, you'll never forget. Oscar?(r) nominee* Don Cheadle (Traffic) gives "the performance of his career in this extraordinarily powerful" (The Hollywood Reporter) and moving true story of one man's brave stance against savagery during the 1994 Rwandan conflict. Sophie Okonedo (Dirty Pretty Things) co-stars as the loving wife who challenges a good man to become a great man. As his country descends into madness, five-star-hotel manager Paul Rusesabagina (Cheadle) sets out to save his family. But when he sees that theworld will not intervene in the massacre of minority Tutsis, he finds the courage to open his hotelto more than 1,200 refugees. Now, with a rabid militia at the gates, he must use his well-honed grace, flattery and cunning to protect his guests from certain death. *2004: Actor, Hotel Rwanda
Solidly built around a subtle yet commanding performance by Don Cheadle, Hotel Rwanda emerged as one of the most highly-praised dramas of 2004. In a role that demands his quietly riveting presence in nearly every scene, Cheadle plays real-life hero Paul Rusesabagina, a hotel manager in the Rwandan capital of Kigali who in 1994 saved 1,200 Rwandan "guests" from certain death during the genocidal clash between tribal Hutus, who slaughtered a million victims, and the horrified Tutsis, who found safe haven or died. Giving his best performance since his breakthrough role in Devil in a Blue Dress, Cheadle plays Rusesabagina as he really was during the ensuing chaos: "an expert in situational ethics" (as described by critic Roger Ebert), doing what he morally had to do, at great risk and potential sacrifice, with an understanding that wartime negotiations are largely a game of subterfuge, cooperation, and clever bribery. Aided by a United Nations official (Nick Nolte), he worked a saintly miracle, and director Terry George (Some Mother's Son) brings formidable social conscience to bear on a true story you won't soon forget. --Jeff Shannon
