Reviews:

One of the most powerful movies I have ever seen.
I was expecting a kind of a moralistic movie with an overly present, almost preaching like message. The movie however turned out to be extremely powerful mainly due to the professionalism it was made with.

The movie its story is told ‘beautifuly’ in black & white and color. The quite original directing from Tony Kaye gives the movie a nice visual style and certain atmosphere. The story itself isn’t that complicated or extremely original on its own and perhaps at most points even predictable but the way the story is told is phenomenal. This is not a movie with an happy ending or a movie that provides a solution to the racial discrimination problems. It shows what is NOT the solution to the problems and that everything that is occurring is like a vicious circle. The movie does not give a hopeful message but instead shows the dangers and pain you’re causing to yourself and your close environment when you’re thinking as a white supremacist.

As an anti Neo-Nazi movie this movie works really powerful. I think that its a really good and important thing that this movie is often shown in classrooms.

Edward Norton is truly fantastic in his role. He is very well believable as a Neo-Nazi as well as the reformed person he later turns into in the movie. It’s almost like he’s playing 2 different characters and he does that so extremely well. Also really good was Edward Furlong who we all long had not seen in a big production. Furlong and Norton are both acting well together in their scene’s are highly believable as two brothers.

Also surprising good was the musical score by Anne Dudley who had already won an Oscar for “The Full Monty”, the year before.

This was a movie that surprisingly impressed me. As a movie its extremely powerful and important.

10/10

Not a perfect film, but very good – Norton’s performance is the highlight
“American History X” is a bold and disturbing movie about family, racism and our own self-perceptions. Its main character is Derek (Edward Norton), a neo-Nazi skinhead who is released from jail to find his younger brother (Edward Furlong) descending down the same corrupt path as he once walked.

In jail Derek learns a few things about life, and racism, or more appropriately, himself, and after becoming a free man again takes it upon himself to set his brother on the straight and narrow path.

“American History X” is not a pleasant motion picture. It begins in flashback, as Derek murders two black kids trying to break into his car. His brother, who idolizes Derek and later mimics his lifestyle, witnesses this event. It’s a good message about negative influences, along with everything else.

Much has been made of the film’s controversy and lawsuits. Director Tony Kaye disowned the film after Norton (allegedly) re-edited footage to give himself more screen time. Kaye tried to have his name changed on the film credits, but by this time he had already taken out a complaint in several magazines, which are against the rules of the Director’s Guild. He was therefore denied the opportunity to credit the work as “directed by Humpty Dumpty.” Then, musical band Anti-Hero complained to New Line Cinema (the film’s international distributor) because one of the Nazi characters featured a tattoo of their band. They later wrote a song, called “NLC,” bashing the company.

Despite the hard-edged controversy it’s still a very good film, above all else extremely well-acted and featuring a gripping storyline – even if the direction isn’t always up to par.

Edward Norton is simply superb in his role, showing extremely raw talent a mere two years after his film debut (in the Richard Gere thriller “A Primal Fear”). Norton careens between the role of a raging, vicious supremacist and a kindler, gentler version of the same character; a metamorphosis so convincing it’s hard to believe it’s just one actor.

The rest of the cast is good as well – Furlong gives the best performance of his career and Beverly D’Angelo and Stacy Keach have strong supporting roles. (D’Angelo in particular, who portrays a sleazy alcoholic – a stretch compared to her usual Normal Mom roles in the “Vacation” movies.) “American History X” isn’t exactly rewarding of all the praise it has been lavished since its release (mainly from viewers rather than critics, who were less kind) – it isn’t the best movie of its kind or even a flawless one. The black-and-white photography isn’t on the same level, visually, as “Raging Bull” or “Schindler’s List.” The preaching is a bit heavy-handed at times.

But it still manages to convey an important lesson and boasts great acting complimented by an (overall) impressive, gut-wrenching screenplay. A must-see for all who can stomach its content.
