I agree with the vast majority of your review. As you could probably tell by my post I was sort of lost for words on this one. I had no intention of going to see this movie but my wife dragged me out. I had no idea what the movie was about when I walked into the theater and I was expecting a typical Denzel movie which it isn’t. You’re correct the first 20 minutes or so is rough getting through, in fact I said to myself Denzel must be on hard times to take a movie role like this but as the movie progressed from that point I realized there was much more going on. When I walked out of the theater I was numb and in hindsight I realize just the kind of performance Washington gave. You’re right this movie may not be for everybody but I think this is a movie that shouldn’t be taken at face value and that many more NEED to go see it.
