If one pays attention to world happenings then they would have heard about all the mistreatment of children around the world. We have seen other movies that show how these gangs recruit young children. This was a moving drama that made a…

Excellent movie. Based on true story.

I checked out this movie. It is not the hollywood production with Gerard Butler. It is the documentary. It is a good documentary- but NOT the one in the picture.

I found this to be an excellent movie and will donate to this cause. It is terrifying to see what is going on in our world, not only in Sudan but elsewhere. How can one deny there is evil? Innocent children and adults being killed for…

The Hollywood film did it's job of making me aware of this man's inspiring work to help meet the needs of the children of Sudan. The message meant to get through of "now what will you do", got through to me. Thank you to all who…

Intense, action packed, shocking and heart wrenching. Had my emotions in a whirlwind. Left me in a state of shock and dismay, making me want to donate to his cause.

The best movie I have seen in a long time. The acting was great and believable. It is a very sad movie, definitely not for children. It had me crying several times throughout. It should move you and make you angry at what is going on…

Jumpy storytelling and rather uncompelling dialogue and scenes are balanced by a rather raw, macabre, and emotional depiction of events in the Sudan. This should have been promoted in conjunction with the Kony 2012 campaign. Despite the…

Saw on Netflix Instant. Even though it's based on a true story i didn't seem to care about the characters or the story. This is mostly likely because Butler is such a bad actor.

And a new day will dawn, for those who stand long & the forests will echo with laughter.

Good – Machine Gun Preacher (2011) 129 min. Based on a true story account of American Sam Childers (played by Gerard Butler) bringing the war in Sudan to the rebels. Though the film is never dull and at times heart-wrenching to reflect on…

Kind of long but interesting movie.

Just watched this last night and was totally blown away with the story and then bounced when I found the story was and is still based on truth. This is in no way for children unless, as parents, you watch it first and then decide. Because…

An inspiring dramatised documentary of a born again christian who decided to go all in to provide a safe haven for the most unfortunate in this world, the orphans of Sudan (also see Blood Diamond). From wikipedia: Machine Gun Preacher is…

Movie is based on a real life character, and the story behind the transformation of Childers from badass to African preacher w/ a gun is worth telling. Movie, however, did not do justice, and presented the man's life as a series of…
