Inspiring and historically accurate!
This movie is an nspiring and historically accurate portrayal of an authentic American hero. Many have heard her name, but more shold know about her bravery, her faith, and her accomplishments in saving others and helping abolish slavery. Must see for everyone!

We need more moves like these!
Movies like these make History more understanding. I can remember briefly reading about Harriet Tubman in school but seeing this movie gives you a more detailed reality of what happen! I have certain doubts about certain scenes but this movie is good! Before she became Harriet Tubman her Slave name was "Minty", and she was married to a free man. She wanted to have children but wanted them to be born free and her Masters wouldn't allow it so she planned her escape that would make her travel 100 miles by foot. Once she made it to Freedom she knew she could never be happy without her Husband so she began her quest to return for him and stumbles to a whole new saddness... I dont want to give too much away but this movie is really awesome I would have liked it to be longer because I was soo into it!

Outstanding ...... 4.7 Stars
The only critical comment I can make is the length of time for this film (125 mins. or 2 hrs/5 mins.), which doesn't do justice in capturing the life of one of this country's most recognized African-American freedom fighters and heroes...Harriet Tubman. There really needs to be a made-for-television series about Harriet Tubman's life and her significant contributions to the Underground Railroad in freeing hundreds of slaves. I'm digressing ...... the movie was excellent. The movie did do justice in capturing Harriet Tubman's courage and determination in overcoming many of the insurmountable obstacles from her escape to freedom, to her contributions to the Underground Railroad and the Civil War efforts in freeing countless numbers of slaves. As "must-see" for EVERYONE.

I go to prepare a place for you.
Harriet Tubman’s final words before she died (words Jesus also spoke to his apostles)... this is a nicely done film worthy of award nominations, which I left thinking after I saw it in the movie theatre. There are a few scenes that seem to drag and could’ve been shorter but it’s still a nice film overall. The only thing I didn’t like was the spiritistic element being attributed to Harriet Tubman’s spells. Though she did suffer from spells due to a head injury, it wasn’t necessary in my opinion to give it a spiritistic connection, but hey...dramatic license.
