Leonardo Di Caprio personifies Danny Archer, ex--welded and mercenary and now a
Diamond dealer. The war in Mountain Sierra Leona (range Lioness) is the bottom drop curtain that acclimates the action of this
film and that proposes the most interesting resistance between the main personage Danny Archer and his co-protagonist Solomon Vandy; the both African but first target and the second black. Both there are lost its
family, Archer of small, to the nine years and Solomo recently into the hands of Revolucionary Force (FRU).
Solomon is
taken as enslaved and taken to work in the diamond mines where he finds a diamond pink, of giant size and at risk to be killed he hides it someday to return to look for it and to save his family.
Archer and Solomon are in the prison. Archer was taken imprisoned by diamond contraband and it finds out, almost by chance, of the existence of Diamante Rosa.
American journalist, Maddy Bowen, interpreted by Jennifer Connelly, idealist and enamored with Archer, aid to both men to look for the family of Solomon and leave in search of the diamond, that could physically be the salvation for these two so different men but whose lives are very similar and full of pain and suffering. The end is the hoped one, typically North American, where the villain-hero, in this case Danny Archer, changes of attitude at the end of the film and stops being villain to transform itself into a good person who ends up saving to Solomon and Day, son of Solomon is secuestred by the revolutionaries and trained like soldier. A good performance of I gave to Caprio and a film that superficially entertains and shows the illegal commerce of the diamond, the African economic-political situation but nothing else does not spend to be 143 minutes entertained and.
