Its sad how many people only look as deep as the media wants them to. You may call him hero but millions consider him a war criminal, a man who orchestrated bombings and the killing of hundreds.

I LOVE Nelson Mandela. This film can't touch his power, spirituality, intellect. The man was PHYSICALLY TORTURED, not just mentally and socially. This movie fails the soul and heart of a GREAT!

Mandela wasn't the "pro-peace" man you think he was. Do some research and stop believing everything the tv tells you.
