A moving story involving someone that wants to better himself.

Rating: 10/10 (8 September 2004)

Wow...what more can I say about this movie. It is very in your face and deep. It shows why so many Americans just stay the way that they are, they know how hard it is to change. I think that Edward Norton does an excellent job of being the jerk that tries and better himself while still living in the same world that he is trying to get out of. The only part about this movie that bothered me was why was his little brother killed? Why wasn't he killed for his crimes and then change of heart that did not sit well with his friends. His poor little brother was trying to make sense of everything that was going on in his world, and just when he was starting to understand it and learn how to change it, he was killed. If you do not like gruesome acts of violence, then this movie is not for you because there is one part, the part that shows you why the lead character goes to jail, that is unbelievably gruesome, you will think about it before you sleep, and probably during. If you are not faint of heart and would like to learn a little bit about neo-nazism, this is a great movie. I definitely give this movie a ten.
