Reviews
Sight & Sound - It is clear that the film-makers have done an enormous amount of research on their subject... Individual sequences--such as the massacre that opens the movie--are staged in bravura but chilling fashion, New York Times - DiCaprio plays the smuggler as the scum he is... A character who has inspired the most fully sustained performance of his adult life, Total Film - Crammed full of exhilarating set-pieces and panoramic photography, it also included the DiCaprio role most likely to snag Best Actor..., Box Office - DiCaprio commands the heavy attention of a performer comfortable in his own actorly skin, Ebert & Roeper - One of the best movies of the year
Consumer Advice
Contains strong violence and language
Additional Information
Set in Sierra Leone, BLOOD DIAMOND explores the role of diamond trading in the African civil war of the late 1990s. Narrowly escaping death when his village is invaded by Revolutionary United Front (RUF) militia, fisherman Solomon Vandy (Djimon Hounsou) is enslaved at a diamond mine and has his family taken away from him. When he discovers an unusually large stone he buries it, knowing it might be his only means of retrieving his family. While Vandy is imprisoned, white African diamond smuggler Danny Archer (Leonardo DiCaprio) overhears an angry RUF leader shouting at the farmer about the missing diamond. Seizing the opportunity, he gets Vandy out of jail, then offers to help find his family in return for half the stoneÆs worth. United by a common goal, the two men clash over drastically different values, but manage to stick together in pursuit of the prize. Meanwhile, Archer crosses paths with intrepid American journalist Maddie Bowen (Jennifer Connolly), whose obsession with uncovering the truth about conflict diamonds lands her in the middle of the bloody action. As the three embark on a dangerous journey filled with close calls, unlikely bonds form that threaten to change ArcherÆs unfeeling ways. Meanwhile, a subplot involving VandyÆs beloved son shows us the horror being done to and by child soldiers at the hands of the so-called freedom-fighting rebel forces. Addressing a serious subject with passion and skill, director Edward Zwick (THE LAST SAMURAI) delivers impressive action sequences that feel horrifically real without seeming excessive. While some critics have lambasted the film for its Hollywood elements, no one can argue against BLOOD DIAMOND's noble intentions or its stellar performances. To most viewers, the film is likely to provide a disturbing and educational insight into a world many know little about.

    Excellent

    It is an excellent movie. Although it was not filmed in Sierra Leone, it captures the reality of the country to a remarkable degree. There is a great deal of violence in this movie, but that violence is organic, realistic, fitting to what happened there. They even manage to convey the fact that the people are as astonished by this violence as we are; Sierra Leone used to be one of the safest countries in the world. The movie tells the facts about conflict diamonds quickly and accurately. DiCaprio's performance is impressive, certainly the best by him I've ever seen: he is totally believable as a white African. Jennifer Connelly's role is much smaller but she makes the most of it. Djiman Housou has enormous physical presence as the brave Mende fisherman. This movie just gets so many things ...

    blood diamond dvd

    Excellent dvd. Just seemed to get better and better as it went on. Had a real political story to it as well in the way that third world economy is being used in order to supply the west with diamonds. Africans trade the diamonds to purchase arms and coerce young children into fighting and killing. Leonardo Di Caprio is excellent as the diamond trader. Tough but with a heart. Black actor from gladiator plays a moving role as father desperate to find his family and track down the diamond that he found and hid. Best dvd that I have watched for some time.
