Fences [DVD]

One of my favorite movies. I love the acting and the characters. I’m extremely happy with this purchase. It’s such a heartfelt drama.

I watched this movie when it was originally released. And although it is outstanding, I didn't like it. I thought there was waaaay too much dialog and that it dragged on. Just watched it again and wow just wow. I still think Troy is a mean man. But boy do I get him. He was all about surviving for himself and his family. Given his childhood he wasn't taught any better. But he did the best he knew how and was a better parent then his. His drive, determination, even his wisdom reminds me of the hard working fathers of the 60s and 70s who were denied many opportunities but never threw in the towel and walked away or buried themselves in alcohol 24/7. My dad was a very kind man, but I see so much of him on Troy's character. Thank You Denzel for bringing this story to the big screen..

Denzel Washington is one of my actors to watch, I was very excited to purchase this Fences dvd to watch with my family. Fences is a really good movie, me and my family enjoyed it very much. The movie played good with no skips or buffering. The dvd was packaged good and arrived on time. The movie is well worth money!

Good movie

Excellent Movie with a Family and Baseball Theme.

Esa película me hizo llorar 😢 me toco mi corazón.

Denzel Washington and Viola Davis displayed amazing chemistry in this movie! I have probably seen this movie a few dozen times. Most times I watch this movie back to back!

Ah, Denzel Washington and Viola Davis. They played off of each other greatly. This movie transports you back to this time and place quickly without the backdrop being drab, still or dull. The neighborhood is very much alive. The kids playing in the streets, passersby along the side of the house as Troy and Bono take several swigs of liquor in the backyard. Troy Maxon is a bitter curmudgeon that once had big dreams of playing professional baseball. And is haunted by said dreams as well as his feelings about his brother Gabriel's head injury from the war that has left him with the mind of a child. Troy comes from the cloth of a man being a man. Who owns up to his responsibilities and and has little to no time to show love, affection or compassion to his wife and sons. Rose Maxon beautifully portrayed by Davis is his committed and dutiful wife who has long accepted her husband for who and what he is. Things come to a head one day where Troy and Rose square off as ugly truths are revealed. This is a film not to pass up. It makes you think as your eyes are locked on each character. There's not much scenery, but the words make up for it. This film is chock full with reality. You might possibly see yourself or someone in your family. August Wilson dug deep for this one. Great story with words that hit harder than Troy Maxon's bat.
