When civil war tears his family apart, a young West African boy is forced to join a unit of mercenary fighters and transform into a child soldier. Available in select theaters and on Netflix October 16.
Looks pretty interesting. I'm a big Idris Elba fan from his Wire days.
That looks amazing but I'd say there's almost no chance I'll watch it. Certain movies dance on the line separating entertaining and devastating for me, and this seems like one of them.
I think this looks great and I am looking forward to seeing it come October. I don't mind films that tackle tough issues and the issue of child soldiers is something that needs more awareness.
