Morgan Freeman is the sole reason to see this movie! He displays Mandela's vision for peace and unity throughout the film. He sought for the greater good for the people of South Africa.
omg! when it ended i started crying my dad (an afrikaaner)took me to see that movie and when i saw this today i felt closer to him even though we are so far apart
i knew the poem invictus before i saw the trailer, and it always reminded me of the title of this movie. then yesterday i saw the trailer for the first time when i had my sherlock holmes dvd in and i was like OHHHH MYYY GODDDD. YES. YEEEEEEES.
damn , last time i searched for this i got the author doing a reading it seems Morgan has vomited out dome shite film in the meantime now this crap is all you get, shame on morgan. hes a good orator this is just weak.
@isaaccontractor that is from someone who doesn't know anything about football I guess. I used to live in South Africa 3 years ago so I know a lot about rugby, I still like it, but I can honestly tell you football is A LOT BETTER and I am not american!
just watched this movie. the all blacks being cast as the bad guys was pretty annoying. there were certain things that happened in this tournament us kiwis aren't too happy with.
@tommymonsternz Don't think they were shown as the bad guys, but rather the opponents. This film isn't about Springbox vs. All Blacks so much as the inner struggles on South Africa at the time.
Everybody knows the All Blacks are an awesome team, then and now. The movie doesn't change that.
@dixie31623 did you see andrew merthens hair cut? they were hardout trying to make the ab's the baddies. jonah was the boogie, bunch of maarees doing the worst haka ever seen. totally making them out to be baddies, it's science.
Get this straight. The Springbox won this fair and square. As a Kiwi, I had a big bet on the All Blacks at 5/1. Australia 5/2 were expected to win the Cup. The Springbox cantained Lomu very well, and that's what won for them. Prior he had run over everyone, including a cat (Mike Catt) and even "big Gavin" Hastings. It was a tie and went into extra time. The Springbox won as they were better. I was very pleased, as it make South Africa great, and that is what this film says. Great film too.
@TimeMultiplyTide Yeah I don't understand how people can dislike this...Nelson Mandela was actually a really good president, unlike the current one, Zuma, if SA can get another Mandela, they will really grow.
Not a bad attempt at the South African 'Afrikaans' accent. Morgan Freeman did sound simular to Mandela at times. I should rent this out, since it's fun watching how Americans view South Africa. I think I was on a plane ride to Joburg during the winning match.
French team in semi final got poisoned as well... The referee who later was offered a gold watch refused two tries to the French and gave one from nowwhere to the South Africans.
Back then the final should have been France vs New Zealand. South Africa got the tittle through bribes and cheating. It's all what you get when sport is corrupted by politics.
This movie is the perfect showcase how people are manipulated by our media, hollywood and our politicians and politcal correctness.
@TheBluewrestler I agreed Morgan Freeman is good actor...How come he never have a Star role...I noticed he is support actor...I wonder why...just curious.
great acting by morgan freeman. but forest whitaker is stunning in the last king of scotland as he really transformed into an african and thus winning the oscar.
Terrible movie to be honest.Maybe it was good for those who werent entriely familiar with the story,but watching this after reading playing the enemy and seeing the 30 for 30 documentary this movie was awful.
@DrinkMoxie9000 and are you from South Africa? Well was born there, and lived there for 18 years. as you said that you werent entirely familiar with the story until you watched the 30 for 30 doc.. let me tell you something, you dont entirely understand the story until you actually lived these events and was there. you have no idea what it was like when we had apartheid. this was an extraordinary film.
@TheDollz6 No im not south african but theres quite a few Afrikaners in my town and ive heard stories from them. Settle down franck ribery,all im saying is it gave the very basics of what actually happened,it doesnt go nearly as deep as playing the enemy or any other documentary.
@DrinkMoxie9000 yes but it was not about playing the enemy. It was about how how country united after apartheid with the RWC. i agree with you that there was no depth about what actually happened, but it was not a movie about what happened during apartheid but how we came as one. Frank Ribery my ass.
@TheDollz6 I understand that,all im saying is that its annoying that it gives no background to how all of this came about. I know people that have watched it without knowing the story and they had no idea what was happening,then they read and watched the other stuff and then they understood it.
@TracesofGold10 It's actually quite a common belief, it's fact that a lot of the All Blacks got sick before the game from food poisoning, however as someone who hates rugby as a sport, i couldn't care less.
Hey guys im a teen who really wants to change the world. So I made a peace project which you can participate in. I would really appreciate it if you did :)!
All you need to do is make a video of yourself saying "I believe in peace" and saying where ur from. Then send it to me: ibelieveproject@hotmail.com then ill make a montage of it with 100's of other people from lots of diffrent countries"

@TimeMultiplyTide wow u hit it right on the money why cant this generation appreciate a real movie experience i cant lie yes i like a little surround from time to time but this is true filmaking right here
I just finish reading this book for a Uconn high school course (college course) and all i can say, perfect down to the last detail. Some might say Book > Movie, Others Movie>Book, However; me I say Book = Movie. Both 10/10.
I can tell you that in first I was bored by the movie, but at the end I was blown away, it is just a legendary movie, pure greatness! Like if you agree
It is interesting and the script ain´t bad at all - some emotional parts and intelligent details. But It looks like Clint Eastwood didn´t really put an effort on this. It lacks a lot of creativity. The film fills sometimes small for the message being told. The editing is often quite bad too. 2,5 / 5
This movie is not about if the all blacks should have won or that England is so much better, it is about one of the greatest men to have ever been on this planet. He brought a nation together after years in a tiny cell and he was only in the jail after trying to make all people equal. He could have oppressed the white people after he became president but he didn't because he was above that. Nelson Mandela is an amazing person and my hero
who really gives a shit if they were poisoned,the all blacks should of won but they didn't .I will always support the greatest rugby nation in the world,ALL BLACKS, will have their time once again, 2011 WORLD CUP CHAMPS
@littlemissweetxx England won the six nations, but the ALL BLACKS have all the trophies that matter, except one.Besides England dont even have a team in the SUPER 15 , thats right only real RUGBY NATIONS get a look,lol, GO THE ALL BLACKS
I love this movie and I love rugby, But I do have to say as much as I LOVE Matt Damon, I don't think he was right for this part, I just kept thinking "It's not quite right" When he was on, not dissing Matt's acting because he is amazing and I'd never say otherwise, just not right for THIS one. :/
How come they didn't show in the movie how they took the All Blacks out for dinner the night before the final, and the next day they all had food poisoning..... Jeff Wilson was vomiting on the field.
@ecconz listen here m8, I have had food poisoning a few times in my life and belive me that once you are struck by that bug you cant stand up straight for more than 5 seconds, let alone play an 80 min rugby match. Stop your whining, you lost just like you lost in every other world cup since.
its so wonderful that SA won the world cup. really was symbolic of new beginning for a great country & so surprising to the rest of the world just like Mandela´s election.
@gangadarits I don't know but aren't they entitled to an opinion?
Maybe they think the film doesn't do the real story justice, maybe they found it uninteresting, maybe they found it sensationalist or maybe they had some other reason for disliking it.
Without diversity of opinion (ESPECIALLY unpopular opinion) the world would be a dull and unevolving place, and we wouldn't have heroes like Nelson Mandela.
@gangadarits I suspect the kiwis have some mixed feelings given the fact the bulk of their squad mysteriously came down with food poioning the day before the final
@dunedain101 Whatever makes you happy... Just one question, who won the world cup both 1995 and 2007? (I guess according to you they would've cheated in 2007 as well)... Just the name of the country will do.
Whatever makes YOU happy. They gave a gold watch to the referee who denied two tries to the French and gave one for free to South Africa during the quarterfinal, yet South Africa only won by 4 points.
During the final all the All Blacks had been poisoned for a whole week before the final, they all suffered food poisoning 48h before the final ...
And you still think they didn't cheat. Next, you're going to tell me South Africa isn't turning to the next Haiti...
@dunedain101 It was the refs fault as well. And if South Africa keeps going the way its going then it will turn into the next Rhodesia (aka shitty Zimbabwe now) as well... I'm not saying they didn't cheat I just hope that it never happens again and get sick whenever people keep bringing it up... Its just like in 2007, all my kiwi mates were complaining how France apparently cheated with a forward pass that made the All Blacks loose.
Yet I find it disturbing how Hollywood always changes history to make propagandist movies, as good as the movie itself is, it still misinforms the population and shape their way of thinking.
But hey if you believe that French and New Zealand entire teams suffering from food poisoning before their match against South Africa, and one of the referee, whose arbitration was blatantly in favor of SouthAfrica "like refusing tries to the French", getting a gold watch from Mandella is pure coincidence... Well good for you, brah.
It's ridiculous. Obvious propaganda, or how history is rewritten. Meanwhile South Africa is turning into deep shit.
All i can say is that the all blacks were food poisoned before the last game - I saw Jeff Wilson vomiting on side line after the match - unsure if it was intentional or not but they did have food poisoning! But the all blacks did loose so congrats to the SA team and this is an awesome and moving movie! But one thing, we may have lost the World cup but I can say that the All Black are the Number 1 team and have been #1 longer than any other rugby team in the world!
i know this movie is stunning because of mandela and the story. but i think the almost the entire movie was about 'the dramatization of how the south africa won the rugby world cup'. but overall, fantastic. :)
All Blacks fans commenting about poisoning etc...have you stopped to think what bad losers you sound like? Take it like men...you were beaten by a side that was mentally stronger on the day...not necessarily better. You just make your country and your side look like they have no integrity and class when you keep on bitching like you do.
I watched this movie in a South African cinema... not a dry eye in the house by the end of it. Full grown men were crying, and I don't mean one glistening tear... I mean uncontrollable sobs. Beautiful movie!
My birth date is 13/5/1987. 13/5 was the score of the 1st test between these 2 great rivals which the All Blacks won back in 1921. Im a passionate AB fan and have been since I watched them for the 1st time in that World Cup final back in 95. I was 8 at the time I recall very little but vividly remember the heart ache I felt when we lost. Its taken me many years later to realise it is an honour for the All Blacks to be apart of a signifficant day in South African history
The All Blacks did get food poisoning, but the players don't neccesarily believe it was intentional or some conspiracy to win the cup.
Can't say the rugby scenes were that great to watch and a little dull.
Nonetheless from what I've seen of the movie (and I've liked Clint's other films) it seems to carry through the right message and portray South Africa and Mandela quite accurately and quite close to the book. Some things like the music etc are a little overkill but otherwise pretty good.
@AlfTheTroll to be honest, I kinda liked the music, and some scenes where i little over done but overall it's a very good movie, and emotional wise was it perfect! you really see the struggle and the task that is thrown to the springboks. And i dunno about the food poisening but Jonah Lomu sais it isn't true, and i think we can trust on the big man :) and if they had food poisening they played a hell of a game..
Its funny how they never mention the fact that All Blacks were food poisoned the night before the final. Never let the truth get in the way of a good story I guess
Morgan Freeman is the sole reason to see this movie! He displays Mandela's vision for peace and unity throughout the film. He sought for the greater good for the people of South Africa.

New zealand played it's role to end apartheid
in South Africa.
We as a tiny nation cared so much about Nelson Mandela's
ambition for a united South Africa! :D

I love this movie and I love rugby, But I do have to say as much as I LOVE Matt Damon, I don't think he was right for this part, I just kept thinking "It's not quite right" When he was on, not dissing Matt's acting because he is amazing and I'd never say otherwise, just not right for THIS one. :/

How come they didn't show in the movie how they took the All Blacks out for dinner the night before the final, and the next day they all had food poisoning..... Jeff Wilson was vomiting on the field.

@ecconz listen here m8, I have had food poisoning a few times in my life and belive me that once you are struck by that bug you cant stand up straight for more than 5 seconds, let alone play an 80 min rugby match. Stop your whining, you lost just like you lost in every other world cup since.
SteenkampG 8 months ago
@SteenkampG Haha I'm listening mate! I have had food pointing too. It depends on the food you get it from as to the severity.
Seems odd though, that just about our whole team were crook, and vomiting on the field after they attended a meal with you guys.
You're right about us not winning since, maybe next year though :-)

@gangadarits I don't know but aren't they entitled to an opinion?
Maybe they think the film doesn't do the real story justice, maybe they found it uninteresting, maybe they found it sensationalist or maybe they had some other reason for disliking it.
Without diversity of opinion (ESPECIALLY unpopular opinion) the world would be a dull and unevolving place, and we wouldn't have heroes like Nelson Mandela.

@gangadarits I suspect the kiwis have some mixed feelings given the fact the bulk of their squad mysteriously came down with food poioning the day before the final

dunedain101 6 months ago
@dunedain101 Whatever makes you happy... Just one question, who won the world cup both 1995 and 2007? (I guess according to you they would've cheated in 2007 as well)... Just the name of the country will do.
NZxASSASSIN 6 months ago
@NZxASSASSIN
Dude don't be mad... They cheated in 1995, both against the French and the All Blacks.
Don't care much if they won in 2007, good for them anyway. Yet in 1995, the political stake won over sportsmanship.
dunedain101 6 months ago
@NZxASSASSIN
Whatever makes YOU happy. They gave a gold watch to the referee who denied two tries to the French and gave one for free to South Africa during the quarterfinal, yet South Africa only won by 4 points.
During the final all the All Blacks had been poisoned for a whole week before the final, they all suffered food poisoning 48h before the final ...
And you still think they didn't cheat. Next, you're going to tell me South Africa isn't turning to the next Haiti...

dunedain101 6 months ago
@dunedain101 It was the refs fault as well. And if South Africa keeps going the way its going then it will turn into the next Rhodesia (aka shitty Zimbabwe now) as well... I'm not saying they didn't cheat I just hope that it never happens again and get sick whenever people keep bringing it up... Its just like in 2007, all my kiwi mates were complaining how France apparently cheated with a forward pass that made the All Blacks loose.

Well yeah I think you're right.
Yet I find it disturbing how Hollywood always changes history to make propagandist movies, as good as the movie itself is, it still misinforms the population and shape their way of thinking.

I sleep very well at night thank you.
But hey if you believe that French and New Zealand entire teams suffering from food poisoning before their match against South Africa, and one of the referee, whose arbitration was blatantly in favor of SouthAfrica "like refusing tries to the French", getting a gold watch from Mandella is pure coincidence... Well good for you, brah.
It's ridiculous. Obvious propaganda, or how history is rewritten. Meanwhile South Africa is turning into deep shit.

All i can say is that the all blacks were food poisoned before the last game - I saw Jeff Wilson vomiting on side line after the match - unsure if it was intentional or not but they did have food poisoning! But the all blacks did loose so congrats to the SA team and this is an awesome and moving movie! But one thing, we may have lost the World cup but I can say that the All Black are the Number 1 team and have been #1 longer than any other rugby team in the world!

All Blacks fans commenting about poisoning etc...have you stopped to think what bad losers you sound like? Take it like men...you were beaten by a side that was mentally stronger on the day...not necessarily better. You just make your country and your side look like they have no integrity and class when you keep on bitching like you do.

I watched this movie in a South African cinema... not a dry eye in the house by the end of it. Full grown men were crying, and I don't mean one glistening tear... I mean uncontrollable sobs. Beautiful movie!

My birth date is 13/5/1987. 13/5 was the score of the 1st test between these 2 great rivals which the All Blacks won back in 1921. Im a passionate AB fan and have been since I watched them for the 1st time in that World Cup final back in 95. I was 8 at the time I recall very little but vividly remember the heart ache I felt when we lost. Its taken me many years later to realise it is an honour for the All Blacks to be apart of a signifficant day in South African history
May the rivalry continue

The All Blacks did get food poisoning, but the players don't neccesarily believe it was intentional or some conspiracy to win the cup.
Can't say the rugby scenes were that great to watch and a little dull.
Nonetheless from what I've seen of the movie (and I've liked Clint's other films) it seems to carry through the right message and portray South Africa and Mandela quite accurately and quite close to the book. Some things like the music etc are a little overkill but otherwise pretty good.
AlfTheTroll 10 months ago
@AlfTheTroll to be honest, I kinda liked the music, and some scenes where i little over done but overall it's a very good movie, and emotional wise was it perfect! you really see the struggle and the task that is thrown to the springboks. And i dunno about the food poisening but Jonah Lomu sais it isn't true, and i think we can trust on the big man :) and if they had food poisening they played a hell of a game..
