Leave your thoughts about Sometimes in April.
| Killer Movie ReviewsAndrea Chasea powerful and effective piece of filmmaking. Full of sadness and a fair amount of anger [yet] not vitriolic. |
| Decent Films GuideSteven D. GreydanusOpts for a broader canvas [than Hotel Rwanda] both in time and space, exchanging a strong dramatic center for increased depth of detail and insight. |
| TIME MagazineJames PoniewozikApril was unsparing, without being gratuitous, in showing how horrific yet casual the violence was, and Idris Elba (The Wire) was stunning as a Rwandan officer who came to see the light too late to save his mixed-ethnicity family. |
| User ReviewSarah PBeyond the Gates reminded me that I had seen this one. Both are better than Hotel Rwanda, even though that is worth seeing also. |
| User ReviewPatrick MBetter and a lot more realistic the Hotel Rwanda! |
| User ReviewGreg VIt's really2 a sad story, when two brothers had been faced by an event that made misunderstanding between two of them. The genocide itself, had made a lot of conspiracy from the world. When Hutu brutally tortured the Tutsi, especially when they did it in a girl dormitory, is very cruel. |
| User ReviewSian JAgain, an excellent - and little-known in the UK - depiction of events in Rwanda, and from a Rwandan perspective. |
| User ReviewMutale BExcellent work! I thoroughly enjoyed this movie! |
| User ReviewKristin LBest movie about Rwanda. Much better than Hotel Rwanda. |
| User ReviewJardin JI nearly cried. The movie was amazing, and so very sad |
