Review of 12 Years a Slave (2013) by Zahid R — 21 Jun 2014

In short I loved this film. I thought the acting was very believable and some of the scenes were brutally realistic. There is a saying that I heard recently about films, books and other creative art. If you watch a film, read a book, etc.

and after finishing this keep thinking about it, or it changes your views or adds something to your views, then it is a good film. This film is one of them. I was hit by the story , especially that is a true one and I was left so sad, although one might think that it was due to what happens at the end of the film but no.

Without giving anything away, it wasn't about this character who was relatively fortunate if you could call it that, but to million of people who weren't so lucky, who lived that disgustingly brutal life, and then die.

not remembered by anyone. basically as you can see by the rating. Watch it. you won't be disappointed, but be warned it may change your life.
