One of my favorite dramas of all time... Great dipiction of Ideologie! Norton is phenomenal... The cinematography is breathtaking!
"American History X" is a riveting and thought-provoking film that delves into the depths of racism, redemption, and the power of change.
Powerful is an understatement. Perhaps Edward Nortons greatest performance, and that’s saying something.
Such an unpleasant film to watch, but it's supposed to be.
Heartbreaking. If you haven’t seen it, you should. Hate is a choice. Never too late for redemption.
Everything right about this movie is how they captured all the wrong. You won’t even recognize Norton. He defines hate and the evil it is.
This is a movie every American should see once. And probably only just the once.
a perfect film. brought me to tears. perfect all through.
This is an amazing movie dealing with the white supremacy
One of my fav movies, great acting, powerful story. An emotional ride, Norton was very good
