I honestly do not understand all the other reviews that very coincidentally give this movie all a rating of 10 stars. Off all te 41 reviews, it is practically only reviews with 10 stars. Strangely enough. These reviewers also are "new members" of IMDB or have never before reviewed another movie...

I myself TRIED to watch this movie. The first 5 minutes were promising, but from that moment it becomes a very predictable slur. And because of it being slowgoing, I could only watch it with a speed of 1.5X...

Well, "watching it" is a big word. Because I really couldn't get further than 20 minutes or so. I just couldn't bear watching this movie any more. It was just so dull and you just knew what would happen.

I forwarded the movie to the end and that just confirmed what I was already thinking: predictable!

Do not waste your time on the movie. I do not know what Netflix was thinking when putting money in this "movie". It is a total waste of money...s.

The backdrop of the Rwandan genocide gives an emotional load to any film you'd make and the actresses make the most of this movie but its not great. They are sometimes overhearing obviously fake dialogues to increase the emotional tension. In the end its four women in a basement making one dumb decision after another without getting caught. After sitting through this you dont even hear what happened after because these characters are not "based on real life". The hero in this story is the husband bringing Them food continuously despite it being a movie about female strength. In the end if you want to watch a good movie on the topic watch hotel Rwanda or the killing fields (i know different genocide). Those are much better with real emotional development and dialogues that are worth watching.

Love love LOVED this film. Kept me on the edge of my seat. This is not the kind of film to watch if you're looking for something lighthearted. I love drama and deep movies that are also educational, so this was a perfect pick. I had no idea about the Genocide against the Tutsi in Rwanda so additionally this was very eye opening for me. Highly recommend if you're looking for an emotional dramatic film!
