    Terrible movie

    Since when you seen Mandela portrayed by fishborune 50 pounds over weight

    Terrible casting ,,, disgusting

    Learn from Morgan freeman class

    This movies is tasteless and low class and some of the people casting from this move is from India :(. Terrible

    Poor mr Mandela RIP to make an autobiography of him with such cast

    Such a bad horrible movie

    What spoilers ,,, it a low class movie with horrible casting

    Good to see what truly happened.

    Good insight on how apartheid was, a violent and discriminating system.
