Title: Very Pleasantly Surprised
Product review: InvictusSeeing the previews on this film I was somewhere between "this looks really good" and "the previews probably make this film look a lot better than it is." So when I finally watched the film I was blown away. The pathos between Morgan Freeman and Matt Damon is tremendous. The presentation of Mandela orchestrating the opportunities for black and white South Africans to work together is moving. The poignancy that flows out of Francois Pienaar (Damon) in his growing awareness of not only what Mandela went through but also his willingness to forgive is quite compelling. After one viewing it has become one of my favorite films. See it!
