Machine Gun Preacher

Gerard Butler ("Phantom of the Opera", "Law Abiding Citizen") gör åtminstone ett förbaskat bra jobb i titelrollen. Jag gillar honom, en bra och karismatisk skådespelare...

...is stirring when it presents Childers as a hero, but it does its most impressive work when it addresses him as a flawed, struggling, but still determined man.

The film overall kicks a little harder, holds out a little longer...

...the preacher’s incredible story, and the battles that are a part of it, should find an audience...

I'm not sure that shooting back is a solution — particularly when it's done by a self-anointed white savior from the West.
