A fantastic piece of Cinema

Rating: 9/10 (12 November 2012)

A powerful and fantastic tale of loss and redemption. Featuring a great cast. Powerful dialogue, with a great score. It really knows how to pull at the heartstrings too. I felt myself tearing up at a couple of parts. This is also due to the wonderful performances from the entire cast especially by Edward Norton and Edward Furlong. Although it has many positives aspects to it, for some people the language used and the brutality of some of the scenes may be a bit too much for some people to handle. So I can see why some people may not like it. In conclusion I thought American History X was a fantastic movie and a must see for film lovers. 9.5/10
