    Action thriller
    It was emotionally captivating as an action thriller. History was told in an unconventional way compared to the original story and hence art was the winner eventually. The fact that, they used a woman to replace one of the original 3 of the trio as they were all originally male, was pure genius and thus makes this movie a must watch. History, was told in a different lense and this artistic lense was from an African point of view ( Picasso would have been inspired) and thus the movie will always have its roots in the African continent! Well done to the cast and those who made this happen. Already, the movie will make it into the South African History.

    Could have been more accurate
    Solid movie based on a true story. Too bad they had to add a woman in the story as in the real events it were just three men. I don't really get why they changed that but it still remains a story worth to be told. Good acting from the whole cast. Interesting to see that as a Belgian I can understand a lot of the language, Afrikaans, a distant form of Dutch. Well shot, good action scenes, too bad they didn't make it more accurate.
