i do not even know about this movie until i chance upon a trailer of it and then realise it hadn not even make it to the cinema . i wonder why so i search on imdb and most comment be mixed but i reckon i should give the movie a watch but couldn not get hold of the dvd until now . only then do i know why it never make it to the box office nor even near any cinema in certain country . let face it we go to the cinema to forget our problem and not be remind of them which be precisely the reason why movie like these do not make any money but others do . most movie about injustice and persecution always have the good guy win in the end but this movie doesn not . in fact and be introduce to the startling reality of the life of volunteer worker and what they have to go through with all their good intention in place . we be also introduce and or or remind of the ugly side of humanity a to why certain country will never be able to have peace because people be just too selfish fight out their own agenda to spare any thought for another person . clive owen be superb in this movie and whilst i would have like to see him pair up with catherine zeta jones ( the original choice for the female lead ) and angelina jolie be pretty decent as well . it could have be bad coz the behind the scene commentary say their original male lead be kevin costner . no offence but i do not think he would have pull it off . he too the bodyguard if you know what i mean . the love story be just a sub plot and be so subtly do and there be no mushy lovey dovey sequence to make your eye roll . it just a simple story about two people bond by their common passion but whilst one choose to act it out whole heartedly and the other keep a silent but burn fire for it . now and that love . one commentator here say that this movie doesn not do any justice for the refugee and the victim but i must say that no movie can . even if you do visit these place to see for yourself what really go on and you have a choice you can leave whilst these people do not so unless you be in that exact same position and i think nobody should ever try to comment about it because it something i do not think none of u in developed country can ever truly understand . besides and this movie be about the volunteer worker and what they have to go through and the love story between the two lead a the backdrop to distract u from the painful reality depict in the movie . i do not really agree with some inaccurate plot in certain movie but i do not know the 110 % truth about this movie so i just accept it and then find out more about it if i want to . it something you can not expect from movie anyway coz movie be not suppose to educate but just to entertain and maybe enlighten u a little . you want a 100 % accurate show and then go watch national geographic . all in all and the filmmaker of beyond border deserve some credit for try to tell a story different from the rest of the junk playing in the cinema nowadays . some of you might have felt they do not really succeed but i still think they give it their best shot . now and you have to give them at least that .
