When Under Fire: Shoot Back! Audience Reviews

Perry Kate Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
Robert Joyner The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
Brendon Jones It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.
Roy Hart If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.
lesley-161-555625 This is the finest documentary I have ever seen. It is accurate and poignant. If you want an insight into the real South Africa of the nineties, watch this. This is the story of four men (actually really only three in any detail) who face terrible danger to photograph the death and mayhem of South Africa's birth as a democracy. The utter disregard for life is documented by these newspaper photographers but the toll is terrible. This is the story of their lives and the context in which they lived. I'm not sure if I could watch it again but I am very glad to have seen it. It described the hidden side of the black-on-black violence and the cost. The stress of living this kind of life and the graphic photographs will be hard to view in places but it is worth it.
