Powerful, gripping drama....

Rating: 9/10 (9 February 2020)

'American History X' is a very powerful movie and contains a strong political message. It shows how the youth can be both manipulated, through first their upbringing and then select grooming, by extremely bigoted (dangerous) peers. The different stages of the journey are represented by the older and younger brother, played brilliantly by the two Edwards, Norton and Furlong. The ride to get there is gripping and the conclusion could only naturally be explosive!
