Brill film.

It is very inspiring and i thought it was awesome.

This is the best movie that Denzel Washington has been in. I all so like the Bob Dylan song, "The Hurricane."

Absolutely amazing, brilliant in all ways. One of the best movies of the year.

Unquestionably, at least in my mind, denzels best performance to date. this is the role he should have won the oscar for. the film itself is nearly flawless, aided in no small part by an inspirational real life drama, but brought to the screen with integrity, sensitivity, and pronounced skill. a triumph for all involved.

Denzel once again gives us a towering performance in a film that seems to have the right idea but its execution is utterly shot down because of the side story or should i say stories that develop. The film has some powerful moments but also so bland and relentlessness moments that seem to leave the viewer wondering why wasn't this film any better??

The powerful acting by Denzel is cheapened (indeed, rendered worthless and pointless or worse) by a movie that so quickly deserts fact and omits big chunks of reality. To say that it is bogus and manipulative is NOT an overstatement. I have done some research into the case and Carter's life and personality. One should consider why the Canadians depicted in this fiction no longer speak to or associate with Rubin. If this movie were "balanced" and told the WHOLE ("real") story it could be a mini-series several hours long --- and be a whole lot more interesting. Denzel deserves a 10+ for his performance, and is the only reason for this "2"; otherwise it is a total "0" for being manipulative, dishonest, incomplete, and opportunistic. It corrodes our natural good nature. I have an interracial family, have worked with and been formally commended by the Urban League, and have bonded with African-American tenants of mine who are underprivileged and given them lots of helping hands. So, put that into the formula before you think I am dissing this movie out of racism.… Expand
