Blood Diamond

Anyone seen this? Worth watching? Reviews? This or Apocalypto?

Re: Blood Diamond

Reviews are decent. Apparently, the supporting actor stole the show.

I loved the soundtrack ‘Blood Diamond’ by Nas. :dhimpak:

Re: Blood Diamond

I Just got back from theaters after watching this movie. It is thriller with a very good thought-provoking story line. I think its too serious of a movie for women's liking. But I may be wrong in my anticipation.

A very good movie nevertheless.

Re: Blood Diamond

^^ how sexist! :rolleyes: u mean thought provoking movies are not for women. you should be banned for this you know. :mad:

Re: Blood Diamond

Saw it...liked it. Pretty intense. Girl sitting beside me cried...

Saw Apocalypto too...also pretty damn intense, but not the epic I thought it would be. The movie revolves around one character. Not the empire-clashing, grand warfare epic I thought it was. But I liked it.

Re: Blood Diamond

I saw both Apocalypto and Blood Diamond and both are awesome

Leonardo Di Caprio is awesome as a South African Mercenary. I have had a lot of South African friends in Saudi Arabia and he got the accent right.

Apocalypto was awesome too. Great story and acting.

Both movies are worth watching.

Re: Blood Diamond

thanks. cant wait to see it. i agree apocalypto wasnt anything like braveheart but it was a great movie in its own category.

Blood Diamond

Fantastic movie. Loved every bit of it.

Leo was actually acting for a change and his South African accent was so lush!

Re: Blood Diamond

Nice movie

I will think twice before buying a diamond

Re: Blood Diamond

true. when he goes “yaa yah” :blush:
dicaprio is a great actor. he’s definitely shed his “titanic” image.

Re: Blood Diamond

excellent movie… must watch.. leo did an excellent job .. i love his acting.. he did pull off being a south african very well… although thy say he was supposed to be from zimbabwe where the accent is different i dint really pay pmuch attention to that :rolleyes: never the less a must movie to watch.. although dont take kids to the theatre with u :halo:

:k: :k: :k:

Re: Blood Diamond

Yeh man that was lush, right at the end when he was on the hill killing those folk coming to get him.

I loved it most when he told the reporter lady to ‘peace off’ meant to be ‘piss off’

I think he has new found hotness now.

Re: Blood Diamond

Yes exactly that part!

Re: Blood Diamond

That was one awesome movie. Great story, direction and a very sensational performance by Dicaprio. I wonder why dont people take his acting seriuosly. His titanic was like a decade old and since then he has given some awesome performances like aviator, gangs of newyork, the departed and this one.

I agree with ladies here that Di Caprio's south african accent was absolutely flawless. Like in the end when he says ' you save your boy han man?'

Blood Diamond or Shine on’em - the track has pace which flows with beat and lyrics.

Re: Blood Diamond

Re: Blood Diamond

i heard from one of my friends' who saw Blood Diamond, that the movie is too long...is it?? and even if its long i guess from your reviews, it doesnt lose its pace.

Re: Blood Diamond

Yeah the movie is quite long but you wont lose interest....
and yeah Nas is just amazing!
