REVIEW:
Although slow at points, Invictus is a well done movie that warms your heart and makes you stand and cheer. Invictus tells the story of former South African prisoner Nelson Mondala, who eventually becomes the South African president. One day, he calls for the captain of the countries Rugby team, named Francois Pienaar to help South Africa win the Rugby World Cup. Together, these two can make something that can change the sport of Rugby forever. This movie is a very inspirational film that you have to understand to like. I went with a friend who wanted to see this and ended up nearly falling asleep bored out of his mind. Yes it is slow at some points, but is is worth seeing if you don't mind risking boredom. But in my preference, I think that this movie might be able to qualify as a nominee for Best Picture, Best Actor (Morgan Freeman), or Best Supporting Actor (Matt Damon.) So, if you like political sports films, you will love Invictus. Good job, Clint Eastwood. You made a great decision directing this picture. So, what I'm saying is, go see or rent Invictus. It really is a great film.

Hello viewers of this blog,
Due to recent comments of spam and profanity present from obnoxious kids who think they are the funniest people in the world, I would like to request that the comments posted here are in good taste, meaning that they have no Anti-Semitic remarks, profanity, sexual innuendo, or any insults to myself. You can criticize the review and give pointers on how to make them better, but how about we be adults about this. Ok? Thank you, and have a nice day.
