Amazing - a hit for this genre!

Rating: 9/10 (11 July 2017)

Steve McQueen nailed this film with excellent directing and editing. This film is one of my favorite slave-era films and the fact it's based on a true story, makes it even more satisfying.
I'm not a fan of this genre, and when I heard Brad Pitt was in this type of film, I though 'flop', but I was wrong.
This film was intense, and the story was executed very well. You really route for the characters and the ending is certainly a tear jerker!
Outstanding performances by Chiwetel Ejiofor, Michael Kenneth Williams, Michael Fassbender and of course Brad Pitt.
It's a 9/10 from me!
