I am the master of my fate: I am the captain of my soul.

Rating: 10/10 (10 October 2010)

Invictus is an inspiring film, based on a novel, and the novel being based on Nelson Mandela's legendary presence in South Africa.
Clint Eastwood... Matt Damon... Morgan Freeman... what talent! You also see Scott Eastwood quite often. The acting is great, but the main power of this film is the story.
The film isn't as tedious as one might assume, it actually flows quite well. Although this film doesn't have a heavily climatic plot, the laid-back approach allowed the main focus to be the greatness of the story rather than the need for excessive drama.
Enjoy this film, it's both inspirational and enjoyable.
The name Invictus comes from the poem written by William Ernest Henley, which inspired Nelson Mandela in the worst of his times.
Beauty through and through.
