Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
BBC Films' stab at the Sarajevo drama of conscience tries to sidestep Western guilt trips by casting international actors as Bosnians speaking English in a variety of swarthy accents. (Not very ingenious, admittedly.) Roache and Perez are sharp-shooting buddies who end up sniping on opposite sides of the fence - Linus is Muslim, Vincent's a Serb. The locations look real, but not much else does in this well-meaning, but leadenly predictable effort.Author: TCh
