Stunning and emotional

Rating: Null/10 (8 April 1999)

This movie was very nicely done. I have always thought Edward Norton was a superb actor and this film reaffirmed my beliefs. Norton is very persuasive and intelligent as the young Neo-Nazi leader. The movie is also gritty and shocking and doesn't pull any punches, hence the prison shower scene and the "curb-stomping" scene. I am not a particular Edward Furlong fan yet he does a nice job as the junior Hitler-in-waiting with readily available smart-a$$ grin. The rest of the supporting cast is good, but it is Norton who shines in a performance that was definitely worthy of his Oscar consideration. This film will make you think and will stir a lot of emotions. It's well worth the money you'll pay to see it.
