Just came to say that Norton is overrated.

His career was great at the beginning:
Rounders
American History X
The People vs Larry Flynt
Fight Club
Primal Fear

But he fell off since then.
His acting is corny now.

He's been in good films but his acting hasn't been great.
thats a top notch filmogrophy rbeh :snoop:

Very underappreciated movie.

Edward Norton's best acting, in my opinion.

Hollywood will never see another movie like it.

shyt we don't have to...Alton Sterling, Eric Garner, Philando Castle, Trayvon, Mike Brown, Jordan, Tamir Rice, Sean Bell, Freddie Gray, Sandra Brown etc etc are proof that we're livin this shyt daily :wow:

THIS.

I always said that this movie sucks, just based off this scene.


Also, the movie always gave me a vibe that it's actually really racist towards blacks, despite the ending.

THIS

i always felt this too because so many cacs loved the movie. hollywood always tries to be slick. someone said that they turned it into a masturbatory white pride film, that's what it was intended to be. :francis:

Might have to watch it again but all I kept thinking was what was all the hype about after I saw it the first time.
