Denzel Washington's second feature is a class act like the man himself. It's a powerful drama set during a shameful past of the US history where African-Americans were denied basic human rights. The story set around a great debate team from a small Texas town that defeats Harvard's in a historical match in 1935. The film is a noble effort all the way without any sex, drugs and violence. Therefore that the film failed to reach the audience is no wonder but it's and remains an old fashioned classic that will stand the test of time. Powerhouse actors Denzel Washington and Forest Whitaker provide supporting muscles to the young and talented lead actors. YRCinema's coverage of films on DVD.
