(Very Good). Showing 1-2 of 2 member reviews.
3 stars (Good Enough) The composition of the combatants does help the interest level and the confusing action sequences are particularly well done. ~Tubbs
5 stars (Exceptional) 500,000 Yazidi Kurds shot & raped by ISIS unmentioned in Bolton's new book, showing the the US cared little. Yazidi Nadia Murad won a Nobel Peace Prize. See Al Jazeera online for details. V. fine film made in Georgia where many now live. ~Sandy
