You will love this movie. Thankfully the focus of the movie was on the man and not on the genocide happening right outside his hotel. There is enough to place you firmly into the happening of the civil war.
You will find yourself riding along with Paul as he does the most amazing things, opens his heart and saves his fellow man. You will be on the edge of your seat with the suspense and tension as your heart is filled with emotion and your soul tested.
Every bit of this movie is a reward to you as you watch. You will learn more about yourself and be inspired to hopefully greater things. This is a movie to purchase and hold onto. When your kids are old enough, it is something they should as well see. A history lesson, a civics lesson, a humanities lesson and worth the hype. Get it, watch it, learn from it, and be inspired.

Great film on an extremely important topic
) This film is definitely worth the time. Too many times we watch film with no content and learn nothing. This film will open your eyes to an important topic and great acting.

Hotel Rwanda
) Good movie about the Rwandan atrocities and how just ONE person can make a difference in the innocent lives of others. A good lesson in courage and love of one's neighbor.

Awesome Movie!This movie is one of the best I have seen. It is based on actual events, which always interests me. The movie takes place in Rwanda and really opens your eyes to the horrible events that took place there. Your heart will break as you see the desperation of these people as they try to get help from other countries to no avail. After watching the movie over 5 times, I still cry.

This movie definitely gives U an understanding of how people from other countries and nations are suffering from political asylum and communism. U are truly learning from this movie and enjoying the suspense of what will happen next. This is an excellent movie 2 share with family and friends and get a perspective on life in general.
I wanted more information 2 be act or played out by the characters in the end without sub text or written explanation @ the end. That lasted longer than the characters just acting it out. Overall, it is a great movie and it does make U upset as a Black or African American. We can be ver evil 2 eachother because of power and money. At some point somebody has got 2 stand and say, "Enough is enough"!

I purchased this movie three weeks ago and I loved it. I purchased it because it was the summer reading assignment for my daughters freshman year at college. She attends Middle Tennessee State University in Murfreesboro Tennessee. The Author Paul Resusabagina was the guest speaker at the Convacation. After reading the book I had to see the movie.It is a compelling true story and he tells it in an awesome way. He is a great man and a excellent speaker. I highly recommend this movie to everyone.

Hotel RwandaThis movie is a tear jerker! It is an eye opening movie about things you don't see in the United States. A little graphic at times, but nothing that made me turn it off. I would recommend this movie for adults.

Hotel RwandaI'm very interested in learning about different conflicts occuring in Africa especially in this region. It was a very good film. If you like this one or found it interesting you would probably also like Blood Diamond and the Invisible Children documentary, "Rough Cut."

Good but Don Cheadle had to carry entire movie.Review created: 01/17/07

The only flaw I have with film, is it was obvious to me that Don Cheadle had to carry the film.....he did a terrific job. It would have been nice to see a few more different angles to this horrible true depiction of the Rwandan genocide. Don Cheadle's character is one of those RARE people in this world that in the face of fear....knows he can't turn away. Very good.

I bought this DVD to show to my high school world history class. It is a great way to show what can happen in a country when a political system fails and the results of racism. My students loved it. Ebay is a great way to get education DVDs at an affordable price.

Magnificant!!!1 of 2 people found this review helpful.
This movie is awesome! It should have won an Oscar but unfortunately it was running against 'Ray' and people were anticipating Jamie Foxx to deliver a wonderful performance. But this is a movie that should be shared in middle schools, colleges, and in every household. Whether you are American or not, it is movie that will touch heart and make you want to immediately get up and make a change!

If you ever doubt what one person can do to change others live and save their lives you need to watch this movie. This is based on a true story and that is pretty incredible. This movie will move you. Every time I see this movie I get something different out of it. It also illustrates how the UN and US turned it's back on a genocide and let millions die. It's incredibly sad but also uplifting. Highly inspirational story!

I almost never give a film a 5/5 rating, because there are almost no perfect movies. This, however is one of them. In no point was it lacking and in most points it excelled. Everything from the characters, to the plot, to the soundtrack, to the cinemetograpaphy was supurb. The historical account is utterly acurate, and it's message clear, non-polotical, and emotionally moving. If you have not seen this film, I urge you to watch it, especially if you are not familiar with the historical event of the Rwadan massacre.
