Customer Reviews of Beyond Borders (Widescreen Edition)
ONE OF THE BEST MOVIES I HAVE EVER SEEN WOW! THIS MOVIE IS PHENOMENAL! IT'S A STORY OF A YOUNG AMERICAN WOMAN WHO FINDS LOVE IN THE MOST UNLIKELY OF PLACES. SARAH JORDAN (AFTER WITNESSING A VERY EMOTIONAL AND POWERFUL OUTBURST OF ANGER AND DISSATISFACTION TOWARD THE WRONGFUL TREATMENT OF THOSE SUFFERING IN THIRD WORLD COUNTRIES DISPLAYED BY A YOUNG ENGLISH MAN NAMED NICK CALLAHAN) DECIDES THAT SHE ABSOLUTELY MUST GET INVOLVED AND SUPPORT THIS CAUSE. SHE NOT ONLY CONTRIBUTES TO IT FINANCIALLY BUT SHE ALSO DECIDES TO VISIT THESE SITES OF SUFFERING HERSELF. WHAT HAPPENS NEXT IS BOTH WONDERFUL, TERRIBLE AND VERY EYE-OPENING. SARAH (PLAYED BY THE BEAUTIFUL ANGELINA JOLIE)GETS PERSONALLY INVOLVED WITH THESE PEOPLE AND COMES TO LOVE THEM AND CARE FOR THEM VERY DEEPLY. AND IN THE PROCESS SHE ALSO FALLS IN LOVE WITH THIS STUBBORN BUT DEEPLY DEDICATED YOUNG DOCTOR, NICK CALLAHAN. SARAH MAKES AT LEAST 3 TRIPS TO THESE THIRD WORLD COUNTRIES FROM HER HOME IN LONDON DURING THE MOVIE AND ON HER SECOND VISIT SHE AND NICK FINALLY GET A CHANCE TO SHARE THEIR FEELINGS AND A FEW BRIEF MOMENTS TOGETHER. SHE IS SAD TO LEAVE HIM BUT SHE WILL SEE HIM AGAIN. SINCE HER ENGLISH "HUSBAND" IS A REAL PIG! WHO CHEATS ON HER AND WON'T WORK I COULDN'T WAIT TO SEE HER HOOK UP WITH NICK. THE PROBLEM IS THE NEXT TIME SHE GOES TO LOOK FOR HIM HE'S BEEN TAKEN BY POLITICAL ENEMIES AND NOONE KNOWS WHERE HE IS. WILL SHE BE ABLE TO FIND HIM? AND WILL HE STILL BE ALIVE? SHE IS SO MUCH IN LOVE WITH HIM! YOU REALLY HAVE TO SEE THIS ONE. IT IS ONE OF THE TOP 5 LOVE STORIES I HAVE EVER SEEN. AND IT ALSO EXPOSES US TO THE MISERABLE PLIGHT OF THOSE PEOPLE WHO ARE UNFORTUNATE ENOUGH TO BE BORN INTO POVERTY, SICKNESS, WAR, FAMINE, DROUGHT, POLITICAL CORRUPTION AND FOR MANY OF THEM, AN UNTIMELY DEATH. EVERYONE SHOULD SEE THIS MOVIE. IF YOU ARE LIKE ME YOU WILL CRY MORE THAN ONCE SO HAVE THE TISSUES HANDY! THE ENDING IS BOTH SAD AND HOPEFUL. JUST LIKE LIFE I GUESS! 5 VERY BRIGHT STARS!!!!!!
3 & 1/2 Stars - Beautiful & Ugly all the while Unforgiving
I watched "Beyond Borders" last night, and while the other people I watched it with were beyond bored, I was infatuated. The film, while being a bit "preachy," (nothing anyone would be overly annoyed with) is visually intoxicating. Sometimes in a surreal way other times in a horrific way, but intoxicating no less. Angelina Jolie shines in her role as Sarah, an American whose life changes drastically throughout the years of her adult life with her experiences with refugee camps she visits. Clive Owens plays Nick, a struggling refugee doctor with the best of inentions, but has become cynical and often bitter towards others, but not without good reason. Together they reach an understanding of one another, and eventually find love. But as much as the studio promotes this as a "Love Story" it is NOT that in the least. (I repeat this is NOT a love story.) It is bulked up by some hollywood explosions and such. However in whole this is a film about HEROISM in it's many forms. This film will grab hold of your heart, it will tug, warm, tear, comfort and break it. I think everyone should watch it becuase it gives an honest and unforgiving look at worlds outside our own little box. I give it * * * 1/2 for being a great film, but dragging on a little at times.
A lot better than I expected
I was expecting the worst when it came to this movie. I am a fan of Angelina Jolie, but it didn't do very well at the box office and I didn't really hear anything about it.
Well, none of that matters because this is a very good movie. Angelina does a good job here, as does Clive Owen, her love interest. The story was interesting and eye-opening. It kept my attention even though this isn't a lightning-paced movie. I wanted to know what would happen to Angelina's character. I was also surprised by a few twists that happen unexpectedly. There's a key scene midway through the movie that doesn't mean a lot at the time, but perfectly foreshadows something that happens later on.
I highly recommend this movie. It was very entertaining and it really did make you think. I'm not a big fan of movies like this, but this is an exception. It should have been a bigger hit.
