This is a fine documentary showing what it takes to be committed to a cause. Sean Penn discarded his celebrity status; unless it was to fund raise; which is totally acceptable; and did a great degree of the heavy lifting in applying much needed assistance to the impoverished and disaster ridden people of Haiti. Bravo Mr. Penn.

As far as documentaries go it was okish not good not bad but watchable. To be honest I did feel the filming was just a vehicle to show Penn being anything other than just a successful Hollywood star who was simply content with being just that.

Although he rolled up his sleeves and got stuck in I couldn't help but wonder why did he request the guy filming to keep the camera pointed at the matter in hand and not at him Sean Penn.

Yet this documentary is basically 50% Sean Penn complete with the obligatory cigarette to which several packets must of been emptied.

So its a middling 5/10 and do I want to watch it again errm.. no thankyou!

One always wonders if a celebrity's motivation is good works or publicity. I give Penn credit. I don't think it is all ego. He is a parent and concerned about the world and its future. Regardless of his true motivations, he has helped bring attention to important issues. Sometimes that takes a millionaire.

No discussu9n of his Buick Grand National, with one of the last big American V8s being stolen along with two guns inside. I guess environmentally friendly cars and gun control are limited to us common folk.
