What a powerhouse movie

Rating: Null/10 (9 April 1999)

Going into this movie, I really wasn't expecting much but a preachy afterschool special. However, the performance by Edward Norton, who deserved the Best Actor Oscar this year, truly blew me away. His performance as a neo-nazi skinhead, to the transformation of a man who knew his mistakes and wants to get out is unreal. Of course they do slide in the theme that hate is wrong, but they deliver it to the audience with such oompf and it really knocks you out. Also, the cinematography and direction was superb. Why Tony Kaye wanted his name removed is beyond me. I recommend this film to everyone!
