4 Star

Rating: Null/10 (21 February 1999)

I first saw this movie in the theaters, and walked out in tears. It is one of those great movies that touches not only your heart, but your soul as well. The film gives credit to a subject rarely touched upon. The acting is wonderful. Morgan Freeman and Denzel Washington are first rate, and Cary Elwes gives a performance, that I believe, did not get enough credit. The only weak point was Broderick. I don't feel he had the strength to carry out what the part required. All in all, though, the movie is one of my all time favorites, and a must see for anyone with a sense of history.
