I saw excerpts from the movie Beasts of No Nation staring Idris Elba, and Abraham Attah it was powerfully acted, demonstrating the relationship of a dictators mind over the child soldiers in Africa. I find it so unbelievable that this movie was not nominated for a Academy Award. In my first novel entitled Dear Joseph there are chapters about a dictator a warlord name ZsaZsa Baba in Rwanda African and how he recruits and brutally executes tribal people and forces children to join his army similar to my novel. I believe it would be beneficial to your spiritual growth to see Beasts of No Nation and read the novel Dear Joseph both experiences will awaken you to the inhumanity and the cruelty of dictators and oppressors and how we should not only show compassion for those that experience such injustices, but we should also demonstrate empathy. - @Wednesday, February 3, 2016 3:48 AM

I got a question! Why this movie not advertised on bigger scale?! It's one of the best movies I have ever watched. The actress&cast flawless the production flawless everything about it fabulous. This movie give us the real eye behind wars and warlords in Africa or other nations in the globe. This movie easy beats any crap movie today in theatre. It been long time since a movie touched me emotionally like this. Well fucking done! - @Tuesday, January 5, 2016 12:06 PM
