Good story, Not enough for a whole film
The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.
By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
Well,since i was a small boy, the jonestown tragedy has fascinated me.i read an article in readers digest,and have read heard and watched alot about this subject.,anyway,may they still rest in peace. this docu considers the female kadres of the congregation, interesting but nothing surprisingly new. there are some original audio and film clips ,but the main footage are mainly acted dramatization on low quality film.there are interwievs with family,defectors and others,but this gave no further answer or explonation to the tragedy than we now from before. to those who havent heard about the jonestown tragedy ,do watch it,for the rest its a decent reminder.
