Ha ha the armenian lobby in the u.s,gives money to movie productor,Director,scriptwriter,actors and actress and they make a film about armenian lies.the entire aim of the armenians is to make people accept their lies,what else does armenistan have from kardashians and armenian genocide lie?any contribution to world civilization in a history?any big state? NO! their biggest success is having an lobbies in u.s.Ottoman empire gave armenians an important place in society,they were even can be in the government as a assistan of sultans.but some of them are betrayed us .they were armed and killing innocent people and robbing villages,trains.and ottoman empire were just wanted to take them to another place in the country,never try to kill them.if ottoman empire were want it,there is no armenian in the world today.what if all countries accept this lie? will armenia become a more developed country with compensation money?NO!.as a turkey and turkish people,we dont care about armenians and their lies!!do not waste your life about this.. - @Sunday, May 6, 2018 11:47 PM

Saw The Promise today. What a beautiful movie! Oscar, Charlotte, & Christian are amazing. Cinematography is breathtaking. I'm embarrassed to say that I never knew about the Armenian genocide until now. Thank goodness for journalists/reporters who risk their lives to share the truth. & to the Armenian people & their supporters who continue to fight for their survival. Your revenge is to survive & live on! I think everyone should watch this movie especially the Turkey government. & USA [hint hint]. I see many of the same issues (in the movie) that are occurring this very day, not a surprise. I truly believe one day everything will fall into their rightful places 🌈☺️💟 Anyway, great movie!!!!👍🏼👍🏼 - @Friday, May 5, 2017 5:08 AM

If you fail to realize the Hussle and terrorism U S government bringing down the last 15- 20 years in middle east and its people, and make a movie like `Sniper` to justify how heroicly murdered all those families in `Iraq` and `Syria` while stealing their future and natural resources... but poor Soldier had PTSD ... OMg what to do !! what to do !!! I am afraid you have no platform to talk about something that happened 1oo years ago, Have lack of evidence (Turks says `no` Armenia's says `yes` ) and really irrelevant while we are facing a global crisis like Global warming or possible ww3... This is another Hollywood Flavored Propaganda... To achieve only one goal... FUEL YOUR Hate to Ppl You don't know!!! Hate more.... hate one another... If u cant see this.. and still want to justify "Anger" instead of "Acceptance" or "Tolerance" ... there is nothing we should ever talk about... Waste of a time, energy, and effort... It's 2017 ... Turkey is Divided more than anything before ...( I am talking about the 50 percent That I support.. ) Have you seen or met a Turkish person in your life ..?? We are not caged animals you know :) we are exactly like you ... Bored and tired of this life and all the bullshit... desperate and worried for our future... also divided; Trying to live paycheck to paycheck while out government is destroying what's good about Turkey... Have I chosen to be a Turk? "No"!!, Am I proud of it? Yes and NO !!! I don't care !! I am a human being man ... We are no longer living in Tribal era.. your country and pride is only an evolutionary residue to your tribal lifestyle... we are all Humans... on a planet which only exists maybe seconds in term of universal time... SO why do you divide yourself ?? Or let them do it for you ?? English, Armenian, Russian, Chinese, Turk we are all same... HUMAN !! I hate war and killings and taxes ... I Love Food, Friends, and Music.... Just like you might be.... Do you know what I am saying ?? So if you think we are all animals and we deserve to die or get fucked bc some fucking millennia ago some assholes in our ruling class done something wrong... "in the time of war and absolute chaos"... You my friend are a Hypocrite and we have once again, nothing to talk about.... - @Saturday, April 22, 2017 9:13 PM

This is an excellent that depicts the actual truth about the Armenian Genocide: The Denied Genocide of the 20th Century. Perhaps this will serve as a catalyst for all branches of the United States government to give recognition to this inhumane fact of history and help bring Turkey to recognize and provide retribution to the Armenian people. Once this is accomplished, perhaps genocide will be eliminated from the face of the Earth. My grandparents, by the Grace of God, were spared from this atrocity.; I am so thankful that I have a life that my grandparents never experienced. I mourn for their suffering. - @Saturday, April 22, 2017 3:53 AM

This film exposes, pulls the covers back, on a hidden and disguised real part of our modern history that has gone too long covered up and 'walked around' for 'political' reasons. If you can deny this, the genocide of Armenians in Turkey, then you're the same person that can see the nazi tattoo from a death camp on someones arm, hear their personal experience and deny that as well. We, no one can change what has gone before us....but all of this did happen and is a shameful part of our 'human' history. It's past time for the acknowledgement of these despicable acts and deeds. - @Tuesday, April 18, 2017 3:02 PM

I CANNOT WAIT TO WATCH THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!! I pity all the Turks commenting their racist and ignorant comments. The man who created the word, "genocide" (Raphael Lemkin of the UN) said he created the word because of what he saw the Turks do to the Armenians and you think you know better whether what you did to the Armenians constitutes genocide? You are pathetic excuses of human beings who should try to clear the Turkish reputation of chaos and bloodshed. Instead, you seek to add another tradition of lying to list. No thanks. I think I trust the International Association of Genocide Scholars more. - @Friday, March 24, 2017 4:21 AM

I'd like to point out 1 thing.

Why is there no release date yet? Unbelievable that such a topic has yet not been shown properly in Hollywood, a very important part of history, and yet it seems there are forces making sure this doesn't get released. 2016 is almost over so the release date needs to be updated. - @Wednesday, December 7, 2016 2:11 PM

If there was a genocide. There would be no armenian in life. This movie name must be " The Lie". If you want to see a genocide, look the history. Frenchs are killed Algerians. Germans are killed Jews and burned . Greek Cypriots killed Turks in Cyprus. Why you do not talking about this? You guys still afraid to Turks. Like an old times. :) - @Wednesday, November 2, 2016 8:08 PM

READ IF U WANT TO SEE TRUTH! The situation in 1915 is that make Armenians suffer made by Armenians itself. The dream of bigger land and trying to invade Turkish cities would ofc have consequences. After Armenians rebelled and slaughter people in villages and cities what must be done is done sorry for both loses. There is no hatred in Turkey about Armenians thats why they come Turkey for work and Education. But all we want is to stop hate of Armenians that they grow in their heart about us that can make "Genocide" in the future. I am humanist but before all i am Turkish. - @Tuesday, October 18, 2016 8:21 PM

0:59 are they really screaming "Turkiye" while this name was only given well after the events portrayed in this biased movie??? 0:32 - 1:00 these are clearly the flags of the Turkish Republic, the Ottoman flag is geometrically different and the ottomans had more than one type of flag! Also aside from barbarian turkish mobs, did the Sultan Abdulhamid II assassination attempt made into the movie or what? 1:03 restore the great ottoman empire? But it didn't collapsed yet! And the Sultan was probably more concerned about losing no more lands than conquering! dislike this propagandist pseudo historical movie - @Wednesday, October 5, 2016 9:35 PM
