The Constant Gardener (2005)

The second film from the director of City of God, a brilliant Brazilian movie. For this reason, I went out of my way to see Constant Gardener on opening day. There's nothing wrong with the film, and I enjoyed watching it, but I still felt disappointed at the end. Maybe it was the depressing subject matter. Maybe my expectations were too high. Maybe the source material wasn't very good.

I loved loved loved the cinematography of Africa and images he brought to the camera, but the film was just ok.
