PERSONAL OPINION In my opinion I don't like very much because it was a little boring with the rugby and the policy. But at the same time I like the film because what Mandela did is incredible for finished with the apartheid.
REVIEW Nelson Mandela was 27 years in the prison, when he left, he wanted to finish with the apartheid. He used the world championship for finished with this. He met with the captain of the team for talk about the team. The Nelson secretary, at the beginning didn't understand the reason why he wanted to help the team. Mandela helped raise the motivation of the Springboks, the team of South Africa. At the final, the Springboks won the rugby world championship. The people were very happy.
