Outstanding

Rating: Null/10 (14 January 2001)

A film filled with fury and brilliance in all possible meanings. The most daring thing the film does, is not try to criticize Nazism as an ethos, but as a way of life. The ultimate message is don't be a Nazi because it requires you to be angry and life is too short to live life like that. Never once does it suggest that being a Nazi is wrong in the cliched manner we are all used to, despite my own feelings towards the matter, the film shows that maybe there is a level of sense it what Hitler said. While most movies tip-toe around the subject, American History X faces it head on without the expected cheese of such a topic. Good Stuff.
