Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 2/5 --
As an eastern western it's like The Searchers with missing GPS. The spectator wants guidance - but may not want it long enough to stay the journey.

4 stars out of 5 -- [F]our heartfelt tales of howling frustration: the violence hits you like a shovel to the head, but the political rage stings hardest.

From the Front Row
Rating: 4/5 --
Has a propulsion that may slow down during its two-hour running time, but it never falters.

Spectrum Culture
A story of lives rocked by violence, it has the urgency of a screaming headline but one inscribed with visual lyricism, emotional weight and a belief in individual rights.
