Brilliant work of art!

Rating: 10/10 (23 April 2010)

A story of racism like I've never seen it before. A film that I think greatly portrays the modern world in terms of different races and ethnic groups. Not like the others such as Dances with Wolves or Pocahontas I assure you. This one is much more moving with the characters and the plot, progressing further and further.
A modern story taking place 2 days, in which different racial conflicts arise throughout the city of L.A as several characters must deal with different situations of racism, as they learn more about themselves that they didn't realize before.
At the introduction of each character, I immediately cared about every one of them more and more until the very end where I fell crying at their conclusions. Heart felt and emotionally inspirational film of the year. Brilliant cast includes Sandra Bullock, Matt Dillon, Don Cheadle, etc. Incredible performances all around. The acting literally brings out the character in every single person. Even Ludicrous, portraying a black sociopath gives an incredible performance.
The editing and music are so intense that I was mind blown all over the place. Every scene had me on edge, even the silent ones. I cared about every single character, every single situation, and payed full attention to every scene.
Oscar winner for best picture, despite living under the shadow of Brokeback Mountain in several people's opinions. It's really a hit or miss. Most like it, then the small amount who don't care for it. Me on the other hand...I simply find it amazing. Everything about it from beginning to end pleased me. Masterpiece of film making and character studying. Simply amazing!
