Product Description: History runs deeper than friendship- and blood runs deeper than both. Two friends (Linus Roache & Vincent Perez) each a champion marksman have been inseparable since childhood but the collapse of their nation divided by civil war in a ruthless bloody struggle for independence and power. Almost overnight neighbors and families once united are torn apart-and two best friends themselves on opposite sides of a deadly line. One turns sniper for the enemy-the other almost stays to defend his community. Now in a war where so many innocents have fallen and so many more must fall two best friends are forced to pull the trigger. Only one will feel the bullet but both will feel the pain.Running Time: 112 min.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: DRAMA Rating: R UPC: 026359141423

It's real easy to nit-pick a movie to death, and I refuse to do it. Yes, it may have been more appropriate (for a production of this nature) to have hired actors from Bosnia (and had them deliver their lines in English--for greater exposure/distribution, etc.) although using Linus Roache and Vincent Perez (who do good work here) turned out to be just fine, as far as I was concerned.
This tale comes from a section of John Falk's gripping memoir entitled HELLO TO ALL THAT--and the screenwriter ... Read More

Everything that others have said about the quality of the story and acting is true; this film should be seen. But to portray to accomplished competitive marksmen with several technical flaws is incomprehensible.
It is well established that rifles are best cleaned from the chamber with one piece rods to avoid damage to the crown and the rifling. To show a bolt gun being cleaned from the muzzle with a jointed rod was nonsensical.

This is a great film about the battle in Sarajevo in the 90's. HBO did a great job with one minor flaw. If you have the original version of the movie, there is one scene where the DVD, was edited for some reason, and they took out like 2 bad words, which to me really had their place and meaning in that particular scene. It is rather comical to see the actor mouth out something other than what you hear. All-in-all a great buy and an excellent film.

This was really quite a well-made and compelling film. Set in 1992 Sarajevo, the film begins right before the region descended into war and ethnic cleansing. It follows two best friends, one Orthodox Serb, one Bosnian Muslim, who are both snipers for the Yugoslavian Olympic team. But with the break-up of the Yugoslav nation, there will be no Olympics for these brothers-in-arms, instead they will be pitted against each other in an ethnic war. This struck me as a very realistic and gripping portrait of this ... Read More

I watched this film in Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH) with a Bosnian who lived through the 1992-1995 war (mother is Muslim and father is Serb). He could not stand the film because he said it is not realistic. The interior sets approximate how people lived in BiH before the war but are much too high class and more like a Californian version of the BiH. BiH is much more complicated and complex than this film portrays. The film is an interesting and entertaining approximation that gets across the point that ... Read More
