It dealt with many racial issues and conflicts.

Rating: 10/10 (8 July 2004)

American History X has been by far one of the best movies I've ever viewed. It shows you the different conflicts about how people are dealing with racial issues and how this guy (Derek) didn't want his son to make the same mistakes as he did when he was younger. This movie is very surreal and helps you depict the different views of the issues going on in this movie. I think the most emotional part of this movie was the very end. I'm not going to ruin it but by the way the movie is told. It's like everything just builds itself up to that very last scene. Everything the characters experienced was sent to a halt and was given a true glimpse of the cruel reality we live in.
