Because of this movie I now understand Malcom X's point of view. I always thought that he was the opposite of MLK and that he wanted to end segregation strictly by violence and fighting. This movie showed me that he was far from it. Denzel did a great job in this movie. His acting was on point and he imitates Macolm X very well. Spike Lee did a wonderful job reenacting the rise and fall of Malcom X. I honestly didn't even know he was a muslim. He clearly was but not for his whole life. He turned when he saw the light when he was suffering in jail. This was when everything changed for the better until he found out he was worshipping a big a lie and someone who wasn't worthy of their words. He then almost repealed himself from what he learned and then set foot to really learn about what he was. Then he got betrayed and shot up by his own people...Tragic... Just tragic.
