Ummm… A “no spoiler review” is really pretty impossible when the film is based on a true story.

If you’d like a review, and a positive one, that does have spoilers in the sense that I assume you know as much as I do about how it’s going to end, my take on the movie is here.

This underscores the need to have a definite mechanism to strip the Nifongs of the country of their sovereign immunity. It is clear that that lamp post is no longer an option, but a necessity.

I’m sure this could be arranged.

As my local theatres have thus far declined to run the film, I demand a no-spoiler review within the next twenty-four hours.
