Clint Eastwood knows how to tell a story. Morgan Freeman and Matt Damon know how to portray a character. So, it makes me wonder why I was not overly impressed when the triad of cinema forces came together to create one of my most highly anticipated films of 2009, Invictus.

Prom Night in Mississippi

Charleston High School

In 1997, Academy-Award winning actor Morgan Freeman offered to pay for the senior prom at Charleston High School under one condition: the prom had to be racially integrated. His offer was kindly ignored. In 2008, Freeman made the same request, this time to an affirmative from the school board. A few months later, history was made as Charleston High School had its first integrated prom - ever. In the process, racial lines were drawn and traditional lines crossed, paving way for a one-of-a-kind documentary by two-time Emmy Award-winning director Paul Saltzman.

Wanted

James McAvoy, Morgan Freeman, Angelina Jolie, Terence Stamp
Running Time:

Rated: 
R
While audience members long for the realistic yet raw film concerning assassins, they have been greeted with several exaggerated tales from the likes of Quinton Tarantino and Michael Davis. Stuffed with unrealistic situations, overdone characters and improbable confrontations, the films are always hit or miss, never pleasing everyone and never generating large box-office numbers.

However, at least a few of those stereotypes looks to change with the release of Universal's Wanted.
