The Hurricane (1999)
2/10
Evil movie
16 August 2009
Warning: Spoilers
I give this movie two star and that's generous. This story of mediocre boxer and cold-blooded murderer Rubin "Hurricane" Carter is lies from beginning to the end - it could be funny if it was so wrong. Leaving out "antisemitism" of schizophrenic from Beautiful mind is one thing, making a victim of violent young scum as a pedophile is another. (Yes, the pedo beaten by young Carter was not pedophile at all.) The film also vilifies boxer who won Carter - guy must be racist and the match rigged ! - and invents a racist cop who hates Carter. The evidence against Carter is not noticed, nor his habits to beat women. What on Earth screenwriter or anybody else thought?
