Invictus is the true tale about Nelson Mandela, played by Morgan Freeman, in his first term as the South African President. Mandela initiates a plan to unite the apartheid-torn land by enlisting the national rugby team on a mission to win the 1995 Rugby World Cup.
The film (directed by Clint Eastwood) is a slow-paced movie that is intelligent and thought provoking. It’s, after all is said and done, a sports film and to that end the film works well. Matt Damon plays Francois Pienaar, the captain of the rugby team who sees Mandela’s vision.
Invictus, as a film, marches to a different type of rhythm and because of that the audience may be shifting in their seats a bit, but let this film unfold for you.
Invictus gets a B- and is rated PG-13 for brief strong language.

This is really a great film. It made me want to research the history of President Mandela to better understand his great attitude toward life.
