    Worth it!

    Pretty interesting movie. I only went to see this movie because I have seen Mariane Pearl being interviewed and think she had and has an amazing outlook on the whole situation. I was pleasantly surprised to see Jolie pull it off. It definitely kept my attention the whole time, and awake! And there was more to the story than what was reported by the media then...how can that be??

    Educational Drama

    by karipei

    The movie is a docudrama, but the educational benefits of the situation abroad are so important. The relationships between the local people and the foreigners are more cooperative than I would have imagined, based on our media's reporting. These people who risked their lives and/or careers to help Marianne and Danny Pearl are not who we hear about in the U.S. The tragic story is beautifully crafted. The acting, writing and directing of this movie is all done with care, integrity and passion thus, conveying a tender story and, at the same time intensely gripping.
