Beautiful looking, but cliche-fest

A dazzling, brilliantly shot movie, with color and images popping off the screen. However the story was a series of tired movie cliches rolled up into one plot that left you exhausted in a bad way after its 2 hours and 40 minutes were over. The movie never touches you, and it doesn't really make you think, despite the overtones of environmental awareness, anti-war politics and a message of "get to know the foreign person/race before you judge."
No, I do not recommend this movie.

A moving, pull-no-punches film that delves into a series of complex, heart-renching issues: sexual abuse, AIDS, poverty, desperation --- but never goes over the top. Brilliant acting performances from the entire cast, an amazing story and gritty images highluight one of the best films of the year.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
