12 years a slave is nothing special!!!

Rating: 2/10 (31 December 2013)

In today's world, we are told to be politically correct. but this movie is a waste of time, nothing special to me .I consider myself on the left side of the political arena.but I do wonder if we are being bombarded with this type of stories, consider the butler .12 years a slave , etc. I was expecting a great movie , but what I watched 2 hours of boring and I mean boring story.he the lead character is kidnapped and put into 12 years of being a slave , he was swapped between owners,sounds like a great movie basis , well it was not .instead it became a boring tale of this mans journey,roots is a much more moving story that covered slavery , also brad pitt as a amish ,I was waiting for vanilla ice to show up and them build a barn.
I hate to ask this question but I will ask, does this movie appeal more to a black audience that a mixed audience, as I stated before roots, boyz in nthe hood,and on it goes are all worth watching, but this is not what I expected, I was very disappointed .
