Ezra

Summary: The movie Ezra was directed by Newton A. Aduka. I was only able to see about and hour of the movie but from what i saw it was about a young boy who was taken form his school when the rebal army invaded his town. He was then transformed into a boy soldier, doing whatever teh rebels told him in order to stay alive. He ran into his sister and started to reconnect with her. he had no recolection to what he had done to village due to amnesia. Ezra was put on trial for what he had done. Unfourtanatelly i was not able to see how the movie turned out.

Response: Overall I thought Aduka did an excellent job portraying the enviorment and lifestyle of the rebels and the townsmen. It was a believable movie. And i would watch it again to see how the end played out. I thought he did a great job with shooting the scences from diferent angles and really making you feel apart of that world. The only thing i would of done different if i were Newton would be to add captions. With the thick accents and the random spots of different language it was easy to get lost in what they were saying. But overall i think it was a great film. i'm glad i got the oppertunity to watch it and get to see what goes on outside of the U.S.
