This movie is great. Please check it out. It's a great movie on it's own. What struck me was the best actor. As a white guy who really does not like rap at all, I was really impressed by Mos Def. I haven't a clue about his music, but he's a fine actor. It's just a great movie overall, but Mos Def stole the show.

Mos Def was great. He's truly talented. I'm a big fan of Alan Rickman, but he kind of took a back seat with his unplaceable southern/english accent.

The movie is very good.

I also have liked Alan Rickman for a long time. But Mos Def Stole The Show. I actually shed a couple of tears at the end.

Very well put together movie. It moved me to tears at the end.
It definitely put Mos Def on the radar, acting-wise, as well.

Ditto. This movie took me completely off guard and I was more then pleasantly surprised. It was quite, quite good. Agreed that Mos Def stole the show. Plus, it was quite educational. Recommended highly
