One you cannot miss

Rating: 10/10 (13 December 1998)

American History X, despite the negative press given to it by its director, Tony Kaye, shows itself to be the best film of 1998. Edward Norton, as is the case in all of his movies, gives a splendid performance as a skinhead and ex-skinhead. This is a very powerful movie, with a very powerful message. Edward Furlong does a good job as well, as the misguided younger brother of Edward Norton. For the film's sake, and for the message it tells, do not miss this movie.
