Never give up hope.

Rating: 9/10 (5 January 2014)

This film is astonishing, Steve McQueen really grasped the reality of what it was like for slaves in that era. Ejiofor really played is role amazingly, and so did all the other actors that participated in this film.
12 Years a Slave is extremely disturbing as you are literally watching people being whipped and and treated inhumanly, sometimes I had to look away it was that upsetting! This film with no doubt in my mind one of the most upsetting but dramatically brilliant in every way.
If you haven't seen this movie you better drive to your local cinema and buy yourself a ticket to see this film!
