Pretty good film. Quite similar to "Biko" with Kevin Kline and Denzel Washington (which I somehow recall being more enjoyable). I believe this one is the darker of the two.

Waste of TIME!! Very Weak movie, DO NOT WATCH, if you do end up watching it, side effects may include: Suicide, murder ramapages, road ramapage, any kinds of ways of harming yourself, and many others...
No recent reviews.
This board looks lonely. Be the first to talk about "A Dry White Season" !
