No doubt this is Forest Whitaker's best role to date, he was legendary here. I was expecting this to be a biopic, but this felt like a Civil Right's history lesson as well(which is not bad mind you, just wasn't expecting it).

A little bit longer than I would have liked as some scenes felt a bit unnecessary, but it was still decent. I seriously LOL'd when I saw who they chose to portray Reagan hah I just couldn't buy it as all I was thinking was Snape had become President.

That was some funny stuff.
