6/10
I found myself liking this movie less as it wore on, as it fell into a lot of clichés and worn tropes. It's a well told story and does shed some interesting light on the situation in Africa, but everything develops pretty much as expected. I didn't really care much for the love story that felt shoehorned in and pretty irrelevant compared to the legitimate conflict it's juxtaposed with. Props to Leo though...he's never acted in a movie that I've truly loved but I don't think it's possible to find a more consistent Hollywood actor out there at the moment. No matter what the movie is, he finds a way to bring it.
