I don't remember the last time I watched the movie, but watching it after reading the autobiography might change my rating from 10/10 to 9/10 or less. The struggle is too minimized, they kind of represented a too aggressive picture of him, some of the important quotes were interpolated. His siblings and most importantly Ella and Wilfred were completely removed from the biopic script, I don't understand why they certainly had huge impact on his life. I wish they could've gave more attention to the chapter where he got to know the true Islam, and I wish they mentioned the part where he met king Faisal of Saudi Arabia. Ultimately, a great worth watching movie that is one my all time favorites, I strongly recommend the book though.

I say a study of man, but this is More

It's ironic. I love Denzel Washington. I am also quite fond of Malcolm X, not necessarily that I agree with his entire philosophy. I think in many ways that he did a great dis-service to the black community by leading many astray from the truth and love of Jesus Christ, and into a chapter of Islam t More
