Why watch this film?

Antoine Fuqua is one of the most interesting action filmmakers, with a bold and enthusiastic style, with good films in his filmography such as 'The Protector' and 'Seven Men and One Destiny'. In 'Tears of the Sun', he repeats the strategy of the award-winning 'Training Day' by mixing action with emotional drama. Here, specifically, this arises with the story of a group of soldiers who enter the Nigerian jungle to save a doctor and another group of 70 refugees. It is a strongly emotional movie, with some really impressive scenes. All highlighting the remarkable performances of Bruce Willis ('The Sixth Sense'), Monica Bellucci ('Irreversible') and Cole Hauser ('The Fast and the Furious').
