Two words: OSCAR BOUND.

"From director Clint Eastwood, 'Invictus' tells the inspiring true story of how Nelson Mandela (Morgan Freeman) joined forces with the captain of South Africas rugby team, Francois Pienaar (Matt Damon), to help unite their country. Newly elected President Mandela knows his nation remains racially and economically divided in the wake of apartheid. Believing he can bring his people together through the universal language of sport, Mandela rallies South Africas underdog rugby team as they make an unlikely run to the 1995 World Cup Championship match."

The poem 'INVICTUS' by William Ernest Henley, from which Nelson Mandela drew strength while in prison.

"Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the Pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.

In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.

Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds, and shall find, me unafraid.

It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll.
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul."

    I am all for reconciliation in SA, but Mandela did some horrid things. Now days SA is very anti white.

    It's hard for a Hollywood audience to believe, but we were born there to parents born there to parents born there.

    SA is in trouble, there is no equality - hence the US are not selling arms to Jacob!

    Go away chav. Go and dive somewhere to cheat the ref. Rugby at least has honour.

    I guess Asia is the last frontier for the White Man to conquer.

    For the sake of their Culture, Woman, and Humanity I hope they dont. just ask the Native Americans and, from what I saw in this movie, Africans.

    I have played Hockey, volleyball, football, boxing and soccer since i was 8 until grade 12, but in grade 12 i changed from volleyball to rugby, we won 17 - 0 and the provincial banner, it was the greatest experience of my life yet, the comradely and high spirits of my fellow ruggers, it was amazing, - 2nd Row 6 foot 3 , 212 pounds, Eastern Canadain rugby.

    Nelson Mandela (Morgan Freeman) delivers such a breathtaking performance in Invictus.
