Write Up:
A terrific premise, absorbing storyline and good acting all around made 'Invictus' a delight to watch. Based on real events leading up to the 1995 Rugby World Cup in Johannesberg, the film is a testament to the power of forgiveness, hard work and belief in team - whether that team is the 15 players on a rugby pitch or 42,000,000 South Africans cheering their countrymen on to a totally unexpected victory.
While an unfortunate mixup with the movie start time meant some members were unable to get to see the file, the 5 who did attend thoroughly enjoyed the experience.
If you didn't get a chance to see this film on the big screen, it will still play well on a TV and comes highly recommended when you want a couple of hours of entertainment that confirms human indominatibility.
