Truly impressive and moving. Seeing all this violence and Khmer rouge regime through the eyes of a child, this is something else. First we have much more empathy and pity for all of them, trapped and used by the regime.

The fact that we guess but never really know if each one is dead is letting our mind imagine how cruel this is.
I don't know much about the Khmers Rouge but I learned a lot now. The most shocking thing for me was monks losing their holy figure, being forced to work.

It was very descriptive, almost like a documentary. All the plans were representative of a child's vision of things: that was intense and suggestive.
This is a true story so agaaain how terrible this was when you know all these happened and wasn't fictional.

Angelina Jolie and Loung Ung really capture all that violence, Loung (character) watching people die at her feet everytime, she's always confronted to death but still has hope for her family...

As a young khmer person, l don't hate this movie however it felt rush.

The pacing was like a memory, fading in and out in which l found confusing—the actors were extremely excellent. The young girl was display such emotions, with subtle expression. I would say that the plot ans placing was confusing, and not to mention, the captions weren't even right? I was throwed off by that.

Film che gioca molto sulle immagini e sulla fotografia, però a livello di sceneggiatura, di trama e di dialoghi è veramente carente. La tematica principale è bella e sicuramente molto emozionante, ma il film ha un coinvolgimento emotivo pari a zero, i dialoghi sporadici ma soprattutto molto banali e una trama veramente debole. L'ho inoltre trovato molto noioso e tirato per le lunghe senza mai essere troppo chiaro negli avvenimenti.
