Invictus
Feel Good Movie - heidi
Actually very informative and shows how sport can bring a nation together. I was so interested in how Mandella was portrayed now I know what is so appealing about him besides the fact that he changed history. Heart warming movie and worth a see even if it is just for a history lesson. If you like action and thrillers don't bother going to this as like we describe easy listening music well this is in the same genre with regards to easy watching movie. It's light hearted and basically tells a nice story and the acting is brilliant so thumbs up from me. Oh also if your hubby is a rugby fan then he will like it too!

Missing the Point - Ken McQue
Unlike Mike, I found the movie to be bang on the money. This is not an attempt to narrate the lives of Freeman or Damon. It was how an inspirational leader used the system which tried to break him,... MORE

I wasn't expecting much from this film at all. All I had heard about it was that the rugby wasn't particularly convincing. I found myself pleasantly surprised. It's an interesting story and while it... MORE

Movie of the week - siobhanl
As I'm not really into sports, I was going to see Matt Damon. The story was the straightforward unity through sports to improve the human condition. Morgan Freeman was an excellent Mandela and showed... MORE

COMPELLING VIEW - eamonndunphy
An excellent performance by Freeman in his portrayal of Mandela is a highlight in this excellent story. You will be drawn in by the story, and the perhaps over simplifying of the effect of the... MORE
