Review
Simply outstanding. From the casting for this movie to the acting is fucking brilliant. You have Washington and Whitaker both oscar winners in a movie. There is one particular scene where you can see both actors having an argument and u can feel the intensity cause. Both actors are not afraid and can stand up for themselves even the debaters who were kids were excellent. Nate parker, Jurnee Smollett and Denzel Whitaker. I love the way they deliver their speeches and all. Surprisingly the cinematography and the direction is good and very nicely done. Kudos to denzel for that! There are a lot of scenes which were nicely taken. By the way this movie is also produced by oprah winfrey.
Not sure when Great Debaters will be out in Singapore but this movie is really worth the cash spent on a ticket for a weekend. If you like great acting, you would love this movie.Enjoy.

Editor's note: As what Subash has said above plus a very good script. One of my fav quotes;

Melvin B. Tolson: Who is the judge?
Samantha, Henry Lowe, James Farmer Jr., Hamilton Burgess: The judge is God.
Melvin B. Tolson: Why is he God?
Samantha, Henry Lowe, James Farmer Jr., Hamilton Burgess: Because he decides who wins or loses. Not my
opponeent.
Melvin B. Tolson: Who is your opponent?
Samantha, Henry Lowe, James Farmer Jr., Hamilton Burgess: He does not exist.
Melvin B. Tolson: Why does he not exist?
Samantha, Henry Lowe, James Farmer Jr., Hamilton Burgess: Because he is a mere dissenting voice
of the truth I speak!
