A resounding social commentary that becomes better each time I see it.

Rating: 9/10 (14 March 2001)

In the same vein as All Quiet on the Western Front, and Red Badge of Courage, this film presents the horror of war, and the victory of the soul through epiphany.
With respect to slavery, and bigotry, it leaves no one innocent, and gives hope for a nation that is even divided today.
It can be summed-up in one line from Denzel Washington's Trip: "I guess we just all anti-up and kick in"
