    Default Invictus

    Invictus tells the true story of how Nelson Mandela joined forces with the captain of South Africa's rugby team to help unite their apartheid-torn country by winning 1995 Rugby World Cup. It doesn't only focus on Mandela, there is a lot of rugby in it too. Morgan Freeman portrays Nelson Mandela to perfection. Matt Damon is Francois Pienaar, the Springboks Captain, he does a serviceable job, but he doesn't really have a part in this movie to shine.

    Forget to mention it is directed by Clint Eastwood. It is a light and uplifting movie.

    Good movie...for a long movie it seems to take no time to watch...always a sign of a film well done in my book...
