  Haven't seen this movie in a couple years...fan fucking tastic movie. Forgot just how.good it is. Love the acting
• Manhattan Buckeye

  Thought it was good, not great...but many of my friends put in their top 10 of all time.
• wildcats20

  

  It's definitely up there for me, although I can't stand the racism in it.
• bigdaddy2003

  

  It's a top 3 movie for me.
• sportchampps

  top 10-15 for me. The curb stompping scene makes me sick to my stomach every time.

  Yea, but that's what makes the movie so great. The fact that Derek had so much hatred for non-whites, then to see what prison did to him, great story.

  So every movie has to be somewhat realistic to be.a great movie?
• bigdaddy2003

  

  I'm not sure he was making a point about the movie but about racism. I really hope this turns back into a movie thread. The racism debate is getting tiresome.

  One last point on the racism, in the end of the original script Derek shaves his head in the bathroom after Danny is killed.

  Great movie. The racism is TOUGH to watch, but at the same time needed for the film. Easily on of my favorites, but probably just outside the top 20.
