A great movie that realisticly shows the brutality used agaisnt africans in the 1800's. i doubt many younger kids would be interseted in watching and if they do theres just a few scenes of intense violence and nudity thats shown in a non-sexual way. all in all it's a fantastic film that everyone should see.

this is an amazing movie ... it had so much emotion attached to it, happy, VERYY sad at imes, and even mad at the people to hte point where you wish you could just jump in and beat them haha. i learned alot from this movie, and no one should have to go through anything close to what they went through. all i have to say is get your butts out there and watch it i dont think you'll be disappointed.

Not Spielberg's best effort, but it does succeed where he often goes wrong, and overall it is compelling, well-acted, and quite good.

YOU GOTTA SEE THIS FILM!
It is a massive film, cool, straight forward and rude - great for a history lesson. I think this film is suitable for anyone that is not too scared at the violence - it was pretty horrific at parts. Sad ending as well, but hey, it was real life. It makes you think about the awful contitions slaves had to put up with.
