    That's called storytelling! Liu Yunlong should study...

    This is not a boxing movie, but a story about a boxer who was wrongfully jailed for 20 years because of racial prejudice and finally acquitted. It's so frustrating. Americans really have all kinds of people. There are people who frame you for no reason, and people who rescue you for no reason. The Bible is also inseparable from every American. In addition, the final heavy sentence was simply overturned, just like his first and second trial, he was sentenced to life in a confused...

    Five stars, well deserved. I wanted to see a bloody boxing movie, but it turned out to be a realistic biography, and the whole movie made me cry three times. Denzel Washington's acting skills are beyond words. Racial discrimination + boxing + celebrity injustice, there is no better subject than this. The godfather of the music world, Bob dylan, even wrote songs for Rubin. Only love can dissolve hatred. The story of the boxing champion Rubin has given us so much hope that people lose confidence...

    My eyes were wet several times, and I remembered the feeling of watching Shawshank Redemption. Reuben's character building is more moving than the final appeal, and while the structure is a little off balance, I like the way it's handled. A boxer went to prison and found the power of words, and the words in correspondence are first-class. The dialogue is worth chewing over and over again, especially since it was shut down and refused to wear a prison uniform for a...

    Justice will always late for years , or absent where there's no civil rights & free speech. Racist and hate , under the corruption system, is...

    On the whole, there is no explosion point, no climax, the ending is a bit rushed, and the sequence of recalling the narrative is not bad, we can't understand the feeling of being in a wrongful prison, life and youth are swallowed up by a little bit of...

    The bilingual theme in both English and Chinese is correct. Washington’s performance is superb and worthy of the Silver Bear Award. The ending song is great. So Amazing Clark...

    A person was framed and imprisoned for life during the good times of life. From the beginning of unyielding to self-doubt and self-denial, then he compromised with the iron cage and accepted his fate peacefully. After a long time, he repeatedly refused to have a similar fate. The help of the boys and kind people finally rekindled the fierce belief in freedom and let it go. The film focuses on people's reactions at different stages after being hit by fate like a thunderbolt in the sky. It does...

    When Bob Dylan sang the song "HURRICANE" written specifically for Ruben Carter, I couldn't help but moisten my eyes again. Norman Jefferson's third anti-racism film. Pre-biography and post-law-1. The writing is so beautiful, the pen is more powerful than the fist; 2. The true friend does not have to be close at...

The Hurricane quotes

  • Det. Sgt. Della Pesca: You are making enemies that you don't know exist.

  • Lesra: Why'd you do all that?

    Terry Swinton: 'Cause you were smart and funny.

    Sam Chaiton: And short. We figured it'd be good for you to spend a little time with some tall white people.

    Terry Swinton: Yeah, Absolutely.
