Reelviews Movie Reviews
"Hate put me in prison. Love's gonna bust me out." Those words, spoken by Rubin 'Hurricane' Carter (Denzel Washington), form the thematic foundation of Norman Jewison's latest film, The Hurricane.

"Dominated... by a compelling, passionate, thoughtful and unforgiving performance from Denzel Washington."

Wikipedia
Thanks in large part to one of Denzel Washington's most powerful on-screen performances, The Hurricane is a moving, inspirational sports drama, even if it takes few risks in telling its story.

My favorite line which to me sums up the entire movie is when they're waiting to hear the judge's verdict and Rubin tells Lazarus, 'Hate got me in here. But love's gonna bust me out.'

This typical 90s styled biopic ain’t much of a sports movie, rather an emotionally strong humane social drama that stays relevant till date for its subject matter... Hate put me in prison. Love's gonna bust me out.

People have asked why didn't Denzel get the Oscar for this performance? Well first off it wasn't because the acting was bad by any means, he gives a very strong performance, which is why he was nominated to begin with.
