Roots is a noteworthy movie about slavery. It is noteworthy because it is really realistic, the African culture is well showed, as well as the cruelty of the kidnappers, black or white. But, because it is so realistic about the bad treatment that white people inflict to the slaves, it's also bloody and sometimes gory, I have no problem with that but some people does. Compared to what I expected, it was way more moving, the actions scene are captivating. So captivating that when it slow down to a calm scene, it become boring. To talk about technical things, the actors are awesome, we can see plenty of emotions and that make the movie a even more epic. But some time emotion scenes, as well play as they are, take too long, maybe it is because of me being a 16 years old teenager interested more in action scene, but I find them boring. There are fine soundtracks, and there are not a lot of special effect, so I have nothing more to say about that. To conclude, Roots was a quite valuable movie, despite the long emotion scene. Some scene were bloody but no big deal. I advice you to watch it if you got some time, it was a good moment watching it.
