The Constant Gardener captures the chaotic quality of out-of-control
politics of a major pharmaceutical firm conducting harmful tests
on unsuspecting Kenyans in Africa.
It also has a hot romantic relationship
with chemistry left over to burn.
This political thriller has plenty to offer
and leaves you wondering how well we know the world around us,
not to mention the people close to us.
For me, this is one of the best pictures
of the year. |
The Constant Gardener is an intelligent character-driven drama filled
with intrigue and political heavy-handedness.
Told mainly in flashbacks, it's the story
of a man possessed to find the truth.
But it's the fine acting and brilliant
direction that make this one a cut above the rest.
It's an extraordinary thriller filled with
political cover-ups, self-awareness, and the pangs of lost love. |
The Constant Gardener is a tragic love story that focuses on the way
medicines are tested in third-world nations and how corporate
greed takes advantage of the poor & sick by attempting to
cover up any bad side effects that might occur after testing.
The movie is fiction, but the incidents
it looks at are based on real-world events from Asia & Africa. |
