Keeley Coleman The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;
Jakoba True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.
Marva It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,
Kayden This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama
patrickfrandji What a powerful movie based around the beauty and horror of the human race. It's sad to know that these events keep happening throughout history yet only a few of them make it to our history books taught in school. Beautiful movie, thank you to all who made this happen.
gurleyiii4 I can't believe I've never heard of this movie! Wonderful romance and eye-opening historical accuracy. I'm highly recommending this on FB.
dbilhan At the beginning, Hunchakian Party was established in 1887 in Geneva and Dashnaktsutyun party was established 1890 in Tiflis and they began fight for independence against Ottoman Empire. It means that Armenian rebellion had begun fight against Ottoman empire before the WW1. In the movie all Armenian showed like civilian but it is not correct they were heavily armed by Russia and France because Russia wants take Caucasia from Ottoman by manipulating Armenian people and France wants to take Syria and south Anatolia. France which showed like a hero, manipulate Armenian rebellion against to Ottoman empire to. After all Russia got out of the battle because bolshevist revolution and make public their collusions which signed before the end of WW1. According to the collusions Russia will take Caucasia and France take south Anatolia and Syria after the war. What a coincidence the movie's story happening and France army helping Armenian people in south Anatolia cost which place after the war hold dawn after the war by France Cemal, Talat and Enver pashas who ruling the Ottoman empire during WW1 made a lot of horrible mistake for instance On Allahuekber mountain 60.000 ottoman soldiers were frozen to death because wrong decision of Enver pasha and when the war began ottoman was about 2,5 million square meters after the war remained only 780 thousand square meters... Maybe Deportation law was the most foolish decides of them but it was war and many innocent Armenian and Turks died for nothing but charging a country with genocide which never unproved absolutely unfear.
bedobedo A weak copy of english patient. Acting is bad, historical plot is false. Nothing worth to watch.
