    I watched this movie with my son also,
    Denzel Washington is one of my absolute favorites of all time and this is perhaps his best! I enjoyed the movie and always appreciate those who stand up for what they believe in! However I am still not radicalized

    Thank you son for sharing this with all of us. It is Beautiful!!
