mawkish background singing

Rating: 8/10 (15 August 2005)

A couple of action scenes were spoiled by a mawkish lady singing to some sort of religious background music. car scene was very well done with plenty of tension & would have been better in complete silence, apart from the actors voices.The portrayal of the way white Anglo Saxon Americans act towards ethnic groups was very direct no punches pulled. but the black on black conversations were the best I have heard could never have been so direct in a European made film without offending somebody! If things in the USA are as portrayed really exist at the present time I certainly would not want to be a member of an ethic minority living there! in all a very good movie which I think will become a classic in the future.
