American History X (DVD)

This movie has a VERY BRUTAL beginning that turns many away, to not finish watching. The shame of the whole thing is that they walk away thinking that they know what it is about. But, if they can be convinced to watch the entire movie, I hope that they understand what the message is trying to say. - (I don’t want to give the message away.) - I beg of you to watch it!

One of the best movies on hate and racism I have ever seen, Norton and Furlong give outstanding performances. It's a movie every adult should see.Brutally real.

Great movie, this version has the best scene, the curb stomp edited out.

This item was exactly as described and offered at a great price. I was pleasantly surprised with how quickly it arrived—less than three weeks from Germany to the USA! I had already expected it wouldn’t be compatible with my player, as I purchased it purely as a collector’s piece, and it’s perfect for that. I truly appreciate the smooth transaction and would definitely buy from you again. Thanks again!

Apro pros, isn't it? Look at our world today.

Great movie if youve ever been to wayside i guess. Nae just kidding i suppose stuff like this goes on everyday somewhere on planet earth however 17 years ago in southern CA it was a thicket to be one of those superior white kids above all white kids. I mean there was no gang of white kids that had my back it was just the kids that payed heed to the movie to ostrisize (ditch or cast out) the other less valuble white kids that hadnt seen it or didnt careI love this movie but someone needs to tell them "hey man this movie was 25 years ago you need to put this stuff behind you and get on with your life"....ive been in and out of jail for quite awhile now. No there arent any white power gangs that control things in or out of jail....all a hoax or an idea anyways. My mom berates me for having a short short haircut claiming i advocate the hate speech and activites portrayed in the movie....no there are no white power gangs that pull the strings behind the curtain. I guess someone oughtta tell those kids they be s*** the f*** outta luck if theyre waiting to be rescued (by now anyways that was 1998 son!)The rape scene was exaggerated. They might have beat him up but the rape scene might have been dramatized for entertainment purposes. I mean yeah i get it. He was raped by his own people....Great movie, great cast, great story, but dont go to venice or long beach or santa monica hoping to join the white brotherhood....basically if you been watching the movie that long you be getting a different or wrong idea about all that i guess. I however was raped BEFORE jail so as to desenitize and delay any and all possible reactional countermeasures. I guess if we all said we were being raped at the same time it might denounce the value of our struggle.....the kid wouldnt have known it until he was 25 if he lived to make it. Gotta give him props for sticking up for francis from malcolm in middle....

Has always been one of my favorite movies! Still for more than fifteen years I can very much appreciated it.

Good storyline, great acting, great cast that shows how a bad ideology and a bad decision has a ripple effect on not just you but those around you. This movie stays with you even after one watch.
