I'm appalled by the low ratings. This is a very well assembled film with intense tension from start to finish. There are probably lots of literary licenses all along thhe film and you must accept them at face value because tthey are quite opposed to occidental beliefs. To enjoy it you must let fantasy and primitive juju in throughout the plot.
Acting is so so by most of the cast but Morgan Freeman delivers, very solidly. There are many gory scenes that can prove gory to many in the audience. Direction is good, the film pace never lets down and flashbacks give explanation and don't deter the storytelling. The end is satisfactory and the stury scene meaningful and fulfilling, leaving you with a sense of prevailing good over egoism and lack of sruples for personal benefit.
Be open minded and you won't be disappointed.
