Average Rating: Rating: - At a Loss for Words to describe this beautiful Art Roots...I first was introduced to the miniseries in the 8th grade. I was instantly hit by it, in a good way. I only saw 45 minutes of the almost 7-8 hour movie, I fell in love with it. Just recently, a Roots Marathon came on the television and I watched the entire thing. From Kunte Kinte to Chicken George and his long-lineage of friends and family finally be freed from their "taxes" and have their land to themselves. My eyes were filled with tears from the moment the movie began and until the movie ended. Roots is a spectacular movie. The acting is wonderful. However the powerful moments comes in personal introspection. When one realizes how dehumanizing and how completely wrong, for lack of better word, it is to subject any person to slavery based on some outer physical characteristic...it is absurd. My heart still is reaching out to all the African-Americans who endured slavery and the post-effects of slavery continuing up to this day. Roots allows us to see the pitfalls of the "land of the free...all men are created equal"...how dare the United States make that assumption. Roots shows us that we still have a long way to go before all men are created equal. This is the best miniseries and all-time classics everyone should own. Rating: - This movie was incredible. It had a very great plot. Roots is a miraculous film about slavery in the late 1700's. It is a wonderful film. It is hard to believe that this long of movie could be interesting. It is very touching and very detailed. I can't wait till I read the book. Rating: - Roots DVD I also can't imagine what is taking so long to put Roots on DVD. I am sure lots and lots of people would buy it. It would also be great for gift giving. Diane
