Superpower - Sean Penn in der Ukraine

Get ready to be captivated by Sean Penn's latest project as he delves deep into Ukraine's fight for freedom. In this emotionally charged documentary, Penn takes viewers on a gripping journey, shedding light on the struggles and triumphs of the Ukrainian people.

With his unparalleled storytelling skills, Penn brings a raw and authentic perspective to this important subject matter. Through interviews with activists, soldiers, and everyday citizens, he paints a vivid picture of the courage and resilience displayed by those fighting for their rights.

Penn's dedication to shedding light on global issues is evident in every frame of this documentary.

This documentary shows the reality of cause and consequences of the war in Ukraine. The value of unity of nation and how powerful a nation can be when it's unified. The role of a leader when a nation is facing a catastrophic disaster. The transformation of president Zelensky from a comedian to the leader of the nation at the most brutal war since WW2 is very well performed in the movie.

I looked at Sean Penn with a different perspective. The courage of celebrity of his level to attend the most dangerous parts in Ukraine, visiting the frontline is inspiring. Much of respect to Sean Penn for this work.

Why the documentary cannot be considered mediocre: because someone put in the effort to make it at that particular time, it deserves a 10/10. Westerners don't understand one thing: what it's like to be located in this part of the world, at the crossroads of three great historical empires. One of which will never allow you to live as you wish. The only solution is the sacrifice of blood, otherwise you will cease to exist. No nation in this geographical area has gained the right to self-determination without going through 2-3 wars and millions of deaths. And the fact that this is happening in the 21st century is horrifying.

No matter what is said about you, I am totally by your side. Don't let haters get you down. I know what I'm seeing in you. And Zelensky. Totally. This is your best achievement so far.

I loved this documentary with all my heart. I hope it will get picked up wider than Paramount+. Everyone should see it and be reminded of why we are helping Ukraine. Why it is important to us and the world. My favorite scene is in the apartment. The woman mentioned trying to save things that were emotionally valuable. Sean didn't say, "What can I do?" but "What can I carry out?" Right there, in the moment. One reason why I admire him.

First of all, there are som reviews here that are negative that are just Russian propaganda at best. Its full lies and half truths promoting the Russian narrative. As for the movie its a 7 for the fact they were there and the footage they took, as a documentary its a 5-6. Most of all it lacks depth and analysis from politicians and experts from the west on the military and political side leading up to the war. Its a little to much look how great we are who made the movie and the focus of a real documentarian is the subject, not the creator. There are a lot of interviews with ordinary Ukranians and governmental ukrainians that saves the movie, but a stronger message could have been sent by showing and destroying the Russian lies and have them as a comparable, not in the least showing all the atrocities that Russian troops committed in places like Bucha.
