  • I live in pittsburgh real close to where the pittsburgh group lived in prospect park. I walk around there sometimes and the whole area they live in is pretty much refugees and foreigners.

  • love the movie. and all of us who lived in peace, give a hand...!

  • my best friends uncle made this film, it looks good

  • awesome movie, I cried during this movie for some reason

  • I'm glad to have met John Dau

  • amazing film, does anyone know the song played at the end of this trailer? I love it, and the lost boys of sudan's story is incredible.

  • My English teacher is friends with one of the Lost Boys, one of the people who was allowed to come to America (if you have seen this film, he was the one talking about their Black Days). We watched this doc in class and then he came in and talked to us. It was a life-changing experience--so amazing, and really moving.

  • This movie changed my life. If you have not had the opportunity to watch it yet, I highly recommend it. These courageous men show us how often we take even the smallest things for granted. We all need to learn a deeper appreciation for life and a universal respect for each other.

  • we watched this in religion class and its sooo funny! its my favorite movie now :)

  • God didn't grow tired of them, it's all the Sudanese government's fault.

    All that land, oil, human resources going to waste.

  • Amazing movie about how America is the last great place on this planet, the land of opportunity and how America is the land of second chances, we have it great here and there has never been a place like this.

  • Absolutely, this is the best documentary I have ever seen in my life. (And I like documentaries.) Plus some parts are quite humorous :)

  • Bah, last great place. There are many Great, some I would consider even greater than America. To be honest with you, I would rather move to Britain, or France, or Germany, or Russia, or Sweden, or Switzerland etc. before I considered moving to the USA. All it has to offer is wealth, and quite frankly Im tired of civilizations driven by greed...

  • Dude, America is great and all, but it isn't the last great place on the planet, I mean Japan and Europe and America and Canada are the best places to live in the world. But I think parts of India, are pretty good too.

  • gaaah , we watched this is Social class . it really opens your eyes to see what it`s like ++ how much we take for granted

  • i want to c this film plz try to upload it !

  • Im watching this tonight 9/23/08 AAHHHHH!!!

    I LOVE MOVIES!but seriusly we do take things for grantyed here in america, we are the best but we keep forgetting how good we have it. :)

  • we watched this at school ,

    i it really opened our eyes !

    we wrote letters to john panther & daniel .

    i think this is dreat , and everyone should see it .

  • THERE ARE NO ARABS involved in the Sudanese conflict. Just because the Northerners are Muslims DOES NOT MEAN they are Arabs. They just like Somalians.

  • There are many people of Arab descent in Sudan, and many people who are not Arab but are Muslim because they have assimilated into Arab culture and have been Islamized.

  • I've been wanting to see this for a long time, I finaly get to watch it tonight.

  • oh my godd i saw this in school!

    i love the part where he's liek "aww i failed my driving test" and then he gets in his car and drives home

    hahah

  • The best documentary EVER!!!!! I love these guys. By far the most compelling story of overcoming insurmountable adversities. I will never complain about my life ever again. Do yourself a favor a watch this movie. OUTSTANDING

  • we watched this in school today

    this was a truly amazing movie

  • Wow I just watched this film and had a guest speaker who was also a lost boy from Sudan and it was very touching to hear his stories and struggles. He came to this country not having anything and now he is getting his master in Sociology. Truly a touching film, it made me cry

  • I have to say, I live in South Africa and I get very confused on why is Africa always seen like this. We have all the latest technology and infrastructure but when ever they show my country they show rural regions, I'm perplex by this.

  • i wonder the same things...Sibuh..they only show the rural areas...because that is where poverty is.....trust me, there are some places i didn't know existed in Kenya until i came to college in the USA and watched the discovery channel..lol. So glad i am back home

  • THIS IS VERY FUNNY ...

    and YOU USA YOU , support the war in sudan

    YOU GAVE THE MONEY AND WEAPONS TO BOTH SIDE .

    AND I MEAN THE USA COVENMNT

    NOT NOT NOT THE FRIENDLY AMERICAN PEOPLE.

    AND AFTER KILLING MILLIONS YOU ARE TRYING TO GIVE A GOOD PICTURE .

  • Who exactly are you yelling at then and why is it funny? The point is to raise awareness about it so we can stop it. The American people are making a "good picture" to prevent their government from continuing to support violence. If that isn't a noble purpose I don't know what is. Nothing's going to change if people like you just keep trying to blame others when they could be doing something productive to actually try and stop the problem.

  • i rented this movie 2 days ago best movie ive ever seen

  • the documentary looks like it could be good but the trailer nearly made me throw up! Very cheesy and makes out like it is dream come true to live in america!

  • You don't think that maybe it IS a dream come true to live in America for many of these refugees in Africa? You ignorant bastard

  • Actually the film itself definitely doesn't have the tone of the trailer. Its a balanced reflection on the differences in cultures, and the challenges faced by these guys who've seen and experienced so much, and had to leave everything. Not a 'haha africans. USA YAAY! now-we-cry-and-hug' film as made out here. It is good though.

  • It's true that this trailer paints a much happier picture than the actual documentary. And while it may be a dream to live in America, if you watch the movie, lightman215, maybe you'll see that it's not necessarily a "dream come true." Their lives in America are incredibly difficult and not anything like what they expected.

  • i had to watch this in my geography class and this movie is very touching its wonderful everyone should try to watch it it amazing

  • WE SHOULD ALL HELP THEM!!!

  • I watched that documentary today... it was awesome!

  • We just saw this movie and LOVED it!! It was Fantastic. Not only is it very entertaining as we laughed and cried hard, but also helps to change the way you see "our" world.

  • Exactley. You made a very good point there. It also opens our eyes to other cultures that are suffering too.

  • This movie is going to make me cry. I am an 18 year old male.

  • Nothing wrong with that. I cried too... for reasons I won't go to.

  • o my god this is such an awesome movie :O !!

  • I was able to watch screening of this in Salt Lake City, it was amazing.
