Review title: Weak movie with a few bright spots
Product review: I have never seen the mini-series, so I am reviewing this DVD as a stand alone film. Although I didn't think it was as terrible as some of the other reviews state, it was pretty bad overall. The story has a lot of holes and nonsensical moments. The overall character development is weak. I never felt as though I really knew a single character in the film. There was no major villian, although there were certainly some bad guys (slave traders). I'm really not sure what the point of the film was.The best part of the film took place on the slave ship. That one part of this film really drew me in and made me shudder. Those scenes helped remind me of how horrible a crime slavery actually was, and how we how lucky we are today. Then, those scenes ended with an unintentionally laughable escape sequence.I wouldn't recommend this film to anyone, but the slave ship scenes were enough for me to give it 2 stars.
