Selma [Blu-ray] [2014]

This movie gives those of us who did not live through this period a real glimpse of history. I think the actor's did well and the story line was great.

This movie helped my family and myself learn more about what the times of segregation were like and really touched our hearts greatly.

Selma is a must movie to see for all interested in the Civil Rights Movement. This film shows how people of denominations came together for Civil Rights.

"Selma" explores the racially turbulent years 1964-1965 as black people stood up for their right to vote. The systematic persecution and injustice of black people was going unanswered and this was largely due to black people being deliberately kept out of the democratic process. In this dramatization of MLK and company, the film explores the tactics used by the civil rights leader and his associates to peacefully fight for their right to vote. The film also serves as a dark mirror in 21st century America, that while great strides have been made in the struggle for justice and equality for people of color, the resisters of equality for all are still ever present today to voice their innate superiority beliefs. As an avid lover of films depicting the struggle of black people in America, I highly recommend you add this film to your collection.

I'll sum up this review on this note after watching this phenomenal, incredibly well directed and produced art form. Kudos to the All Star Cast, Director and Producers! I was moved, touch and overrun with emotion to confirm what I know already about why authoritative abuse is still evident and wide spread in modern day society, with no end in site! My hope is that this movie will break the frozen mentality of those who say, "things are so much better and there is no need to change anything". I strongly encourage everyone from all ethnicities to watch this movie and maybe then society will become more focus and less tolerant of acceptance. Maybe this excellent movie will serve as a precursor to invoke change! Another good buy from Best Buy!

A gripping and disturbing dark part of American history expertly displayed with integrity & compassion. Fantastic performances. I loved this movie.

My GOD, this it a great great great movie that's based on the true events. I'm from Atlanta and I absolutely know that this is a very honest telling of many truths during this time. I'm not much for civil rights type films, even stay away for the most part. But this film at it heart is very true to events. Also it tells of Malcolm X, David Abernathy, Hosa Willams and others. A great movie.

Selma touched my heart. Some of the actions in the film took me by surprise and made me cry. I went through several emotions while watching Selma, parts of the film were upsetting, heartwarming, uplifting, and thought provoking. Selma is a must see film, especially for those who want to know more about and understand the Civil Rights movement.
