The Least of These: The Graham Staines Story

Well made movie about the Graham Staines story. It is a sad but touching story.

Interesting angle on foreign missions abroad and not over-preachy. Stephen Baldwin was good even though his Australian accent is not that great.

The acting was just so bad...the main actor in the film is OK...and Baldwin...well hes OK compared to the rest...but overall the acting just diminishes the potential of the film. Like I said great story...just bad acting.

Gripping and thought provoking. The Movie takes you through a journey of a man who challenges you to reflect and forgive. This is one story that needed to be told.

Powerful story of love, commitment, sacrifice and forgiveness. A film that all should see.

What is an interesting true story was spoilt by painfully wooden acting and some really cheesy dialogue. The quality of filming is good, but it just isn't well written and the inter-personal level. The main actor (Graham) seems completely miss-cast. He comes across as condescending and out of touch with his Christian faith. Whilst helping people medically he has the charisma and warmth of a deep sea halibut, and a distinct tendency to sneer. Not really any likeable characters in the film, but nevertheless an important story. I wish it had had a different cast (all of them except maybe the journalists wife) a different dialogue writer and a different director. Maybe then it would have been a good film. Poor camera man was carrying the whole film.
