It is not a compelling documentary (too much exposition, not enough on-the-spot reality), but it is instructive and disturbing.

By showing the struggles and efforts of about half a dozen people, it puts a human face on the tragedy.
Attempts to both explain the situation to audiences and offer some reason to hope for the future. It's an almost impossible task, and though the film does better than anyone might expect, its success is not complete.
What Darfur Now offers is a collective vision of actions, small and large, taken on many fronts, to end the crisis. The movie is a quiet, methodical call to action.
The film gets a little ''We can fix this!'' inspirational for a chronicle of such staggering darkness.
