Fantastic, shocking, disturbing

Rating: 10/10 (21 October 2005)

Nothing is as it seems. And nothing stays the way it was from the start. The movie shows that racism is not limited to certain colours, races, people but that it's in everybody regardless who you are and where you came from.
The protagonists and there beliefs seemed to be clear from the start. But everything changes with the tide of life, different situations and influences.
There is no time or room for preconceived opinions. The character you just hated from the depth of you heart suddenly exceeds every expectation and develops heroism even if it's just for a short period of time.
The character which embodied everything you yourself stand for finds himself in an awkward situation in which he just overreacts and causes the worst possible outcome.
I regarded myself as mostly unprejudiced and open for other beliefs and people but I was forced to rethink and ask myself how I would react in certain situations. Would I always choose the right way?
I'm not so sure anymore and that's most disturbing. But I'm sure that this is actually a good thing for I will be more cautious next time before I act and talk.
I do hope this movie brings lots of discussions and maybe gets something good going.
It gives no solutions for there is none which could be chiseled into stone for all eternity and which is right in every possible situation. One always has to decide for oneself what's right or wrong.
10 of 10 Go and watch it!!
