This movie has some very personal conflicts that we could all use as many perspectives to as possible. It was one of the first movies ever made with a really emotional and well choreographed Capoeira fight toward the end that you can't miss! This is one of my favorite Denzel Washington movies of all times! The characterization in this movie was done very well. The cultural issues were also well portrayed for the time that this movie is set in. You really have to be in an attentive state of mind to appreciate this movie and have some sort of respect for the history of martial arts and the depths of having to fight a battle that you don't want to fight, to the death, because you are standing up for morale. I really liked this movie and I hate authority. The authority figure is the main character, so decide for yourself if these things sound interesting enough to give this movie a chance.
score 8/10
