Alright so I just watched American History X. What is everyone's opinion's on the movie? I thought it was really good and the ending caught me off guard. Has to be Edward Norton's best role in my opinion. Thoughts?

Have you seen primal fear? Ed Norton is great in American history x but perhaps even more so in primal fear. Have you seen it? You should consider watching it if you enjoyed his performance in American history x because his primal fear performance is arguably better.

Good movie, I enjoy watching it. The scene where he dunks the ball bothers me for some reason.

Because it's complete bullshite that they'd win that game/challenge.

Awesome movie though. Norton is great.

Note: I've never seen Primal Fear...does this thread think I should watch it?

Solid flick.

Norton's best work is primal fear.

His fat friend was pretty hilarious. The song he's singing while driving is classic.

One of my favorite movies of all time and one of Edward Norton's best roles IMO.

Terrible. Cinematically awful and insultingly preachy. Outside of Norton, there's mot a single redeemable thing about it

I love how Ethan Suplee did Temember the Titans not long after this one. I always assumed he took that role, as the lovable fat white dude who loved black people, to offset his super racist role in AHX.
