A Black picture of American History

Rating: 8/10 (1 March 2000)

The first thing to say about about American History x is that it is a two hour film that could and should have been an hour longer and that is about the only negative thing i can think of to say about this superb movie. American history x is a brilliantly acted masterpiece of a film about a white supremisist nazi who goes to prison for the shooting of two black thieves and the story of how he comes around to believing that the whole racist scene is fundimentaly wrong and his struggle to make his brother believe the same. Great acting from all the cast but a special mention must go to Edward Norton for the lead role. 8 out of 10.
