You need to rent it, and watch the uncut version.. :yes the curb stomping is pretty realistic...

It's quite the movie, Edward Norton gained a huge following after the movie was released.. Another one of those films that come out of Hollywood that hopefully was able to open the eyes of some.. I appreciate the way how it was so clear that hatred makes a full circle, even after redemption. Everything we do affects others, and even after the procrument of knowledge, sometimes there's a price to be paid...

I thought it was beautifully filmed, one of my top 5.. :yes It's one of those films that will effect your heart after you watch it..

I absolutely loved it. It is in my top 10. Very moving and very eye opening. I recommend it to everyone.

So I guess this is where I tell you what I learned - my conclusion, right? Well, my conclusion is: Hate is baggage. Life's too short to be pissed off all the time. It's just not worth it. Derek says it's always good to end a paper with a quote. He says someone else has already said it best. So if you can't top it, steal from them and go out strong. So I picked a guy I thought you'd like. 'We are not enemies, but friends. We must not be enemies. Though passion may have strained, it must not break our bonds of affection. The mystic chords of memory will swell when again touched, as surely they will be, by the better angels of our nature.'

An amazing movie. We watched it a long time ago and we have been touched by the message it sends ever since.

That is definitely one of the best movies I've seen. Dh turned to it the other night, and I didn't want to watch though. As much as I respect the movie and appreciate the message, I don't see how people can watch it multiple times. It's too harsh.

It's a really good movie. The curb stomping scene still makes me shudder to this day whenever I think about it.
