Anybody seen this?
Must see. We ve all seen the pictures of the Liberian civil war, with funny weapon handling and the attires.
This movie is about that. Really interesting.

You definitely should. It is another side of war. One that we don't see. How child soldiers can actually be really ruthless.
Do grab a set of subtitles though. It is English, but hard to make out.

BTW, you say you ve been there. Were you one of those secret Marines who were sent down there in the middle of the Iraq war?
Isn't that song the kid sings interesting????????????????

Actually their general is: General. Never die.

Im not who you were talking to Perk. But it sounds like a Liberian version of a "Jody" song. And its no bloodier than pretty much any cadence I learned at benning

I wonder where they got those kids though. Survivors? Certainly not actors?
