Blood Diamond
If you like seeing a lot of killing and shit and a portrayal of what's actually going on in Africa yet today, this will do it for ya. Not a fan of DiCaprio but does a good job IMO.

Agree, DiCaprio's hardcore character overcame some plot silliness.

Re: Blood Diamond
This was the first DiCaprio movie where I thought he was actually good. An acquaintance who spent a lot of time in Africa said he nailed "the savvy white man" character.
One of the downsides of the Internet is that it allows like-minded people to form communities, and sometimes those communities are stupid.
