Movie Reviews of Guyana Tragedy: Jim Jones Story
Movie Review: Took about 2 weeks
Summary: 4 Stars
Took about 2 weeks to receive the movie, but was satisfied when I finally got a chance to watch it. The movie imaging wasn't perfect but was nothing like some of the reviews I read.
Summary of Guyana Tragedy: Jim Jones Story
Originally shown as a two-part TV movie, this is a gripping recreation of the horrible tragedy of the November 1978 mass suicide of 913 people at the South American religious"colony" of Jonestown. Powers Boothe's portrayal of the cult-leader Reverend Jim Jones earned him an "Emmy" and the film traces the life of Jones from his early activist period to his rise as a modern day messiah. The climatic suicide scenes are convincingly recreated in a near-documentary style, and the whole production benefits from a huge supporting cast of excellent players.
