I do not think Mr. Denzel Washington's performance is underrated because he is black. Denzel is an excellent actor. I am sure he is well respected and he draws patrons of all races in to the theater, because he appeals to all people. I try to see all of his movies on the big screen. Denzel's acting ability is versatile in my opinion. Mr. Washington is a role model, being a successful black man, a loving husband, and a successful actor, director and producer. And he is a genuinely nice human being, basing this on all I have read, and observed on TV and in person once. I wrote the review on November 25, 2017, beginning with: I waited a few days before writing this review. For me, it could have been that the writing for that character role and or the performance based on the writing for that role did not add up or strayed off course. Coupled with I know a thing or two about the topics the character depicted, which did not add up. The end of the movie was sad but also powerful. And I like the review posted on February 7, 2018, because the rater's perspective on what the movie was about is insightful. I am giving 5 stars today because it is Black History Month and Mr. Denzel Washington is an excellent Black History Month Role Model, and an excellent actor.
