Really 'Blood' Diamond


This movie thriller made my nerve cells in my brain vibrate each other violently! Such was the impact of Edward Zwick directed, Leonardo DiCaprio starred action packed film set in an African country of Sierra Leone where the diamonds are smuggled for illegal exports.
The film tells us the story of Solomon Vandy (Djimon Hounsou), whose village is torn apart by revlutionaries and captured to work in diamond mines from where he tries to escape and meets Danny Archer (Leonardo DiCaprio) in prison, who was caught smuggling diamonds. Danny wants Solomon to find a hidden diamond and in turn promises to find his lost family.
I liked the role of DiCaprio very much in this movie for his wonderful performance. Both DiCaprio and Djimon are nominated for actor and supporting actor Oscar Awards.
