makes you feel uncomfortable in your seat, but thats the beauty of it

Rating: 10/10 (28 October 2000)

This movie is extremely controversial and touched many subjects other movie makers are too afraid to even think of showing, reminding me of `American Beauty', also a beautiful and controversial movie. Some people say this movie is a cliche and doesn't have much of a plot. I disagree. I loved this movie, its deep, and amazing, and just incredibly smart. it forces the viewer to really think, not just watch.
The story portrays the events of one day, the day that Derek, a highly respected new-nazi got home from prison after serving there 3 years for a double homicide. So while Derek was forced, through extremely difficult situations and events in prison, to rethink his whole life and the ideology that has been forced upon him, his young brother Dany chose to walk the deadly path Derek chose before, the movie shows the tragic events of this family, and shows how they led to the hate and hopelessness that consumes it now.
This movie is about hate, and what it can do. It shows how unexpectedly it comes, and what it does. Violence doesn't have to be a way of life, and some legacies must end, for they have done much damage through their hate. Sometimes life if just unfair, and you can't undo the damage that you have done before.
