Beasts of No Nation (2015)

Telling the harrowing story of one child’s journey through hell, Beast of No Nation (2015) might be hard to watch, but it is even harder to forget. Set in an unnamed African nation caught up in a civil war, the story follows Agu, a young boy whose mother has been sent away and the rest of his family killed. He barely escapes only to find himself forced to fight for the rebel army. Agu quickly goes from being a typical, fun loving kid to a child soldier capable of doing whatever he must to survive.

Idris Elba is the enigmatic rebel leader with a love for walking around shirtless. While talking to a group of soldiers (many of which are also shirtless), Idris walks around with no shirt on. In amazing shape, Idris’s physique is like one of the natural wonders of the world and his skintastic, powerful performance is mesmorizing!
