It was amazing! I loved the acting and the accuracy of the history!

Rating: 10/10 (2 January 2015)

It was very difficult for me to watch this movie because of the brutality of the way people were treated. However the movie portrayed the times very well and gave me a better understanding and appreciation of how the slaves were treated in those times. It was an awful thing, slavery, and the way this movie so accurately showed what these people went through for many years was incredible. Furthermore, it is an amazing thing that there were people like the character Bass played by Brad Pitt who saw how truly awful it was that the African Americans were being treated this way and did what they could to help them. I would most definitely recommend this movie to people because the acting was fantastic and the story line was accurate. Beware this movie is not for the faint of heart because there are some very graphic scenes.
