Summary: Uttterly Amazing Grace
Comment: Amazing Grace is one of the most passionate and beautifully made movies that I've seen in a long time. This 2007 film tells the true tale of William Wilberforce, a member of the British Parlament in the 18th and 19th centuries, who worked tirelessly to end the British slave trade. Invest in this engaging film and you will not regret a second of it. Ioan Gruffudd (pronounced Yoan Griffid),the Fantastic Four movies, turns in a powerhouse performance as Wilberforce, He is not alone in this the others in the cast include Rufus Sewell,(from The Illusionist,he plays good guy this time) Michael Gambon(the later Harry Potter movies),the Romola Garai, Ciaran Hinds(Rome), Toby Jones, and Albert Finney as the author of the much loved and much sung title hymn.
I will tell you that when I borrowed this move from my library, after waiting over a month for it, I almost didn't give it back. I REALLY LOVED THIS MOVIE!!!!

Summary: Perhaps the worst movie ever made
Comment: I bought this movie to use in witnessing to a young atheist whose chief objection to Christianity is that it is not opposed to slavery(!).
Thankfully, I tried to watch the movie before I gave it away. My impression was that both the screen writers, director, and editor must have been using heroin when they executed this project.
It is impossible to follow the story the movie attempts to present. There are no establishing shots, characters are not introduced, and the scenes are edited together randomly, without following any chronological sequence or using any of the typical cues - dissolves, titles that state the time period, etc. - that might help the viewer understand the order in which events take place.
With great disappointment I have to say that this movie now stands alone in my mind as the worst film ever made. I can't think of a film that comes close, and given the poignancy of the material and its significance to history that is an unforgiveable tragedy.
