M: Denzel Washington stars in this movie about an all black debate team from a small college in Texas in the early 1930's. This is a touching movie about standing up for what you stand for and breaking barriers of racial intolerance. The acting is good, especially by Denzel. Having said that, the movie feels a little long and tends to drag in parts. Also, the message, though good, felt a bit heavy and pushy to me at times. Worth seeing, but don't expect an action packed movie, or a movie you can laugh along with. 3 Stars
V: I guess I liked this a little better than M. I thought it was well done. It isn't lighthearted, as it shouldn't be. It is worth seeing. Denzel does a nice job acting in and directing this movie. All in all, it is uplifting and interesting as it is based on true events. 3 1/2 stars.
