A joke of a movie


I started watching it because Stacy Keach was interesting back in the day but Jeff Bridges sucks. Did he train as a boxer at all? I'm not sure. This is one of the few movies I turned off. I know it's about the defeatism or something like that but shouldn't the actors train as boxers to be credible?

Both actors did not look like they had a boxer's physique but you had to overlook that for that drama.

Its that man again!!

I'm not sure you have any idea what a "boxer's physique" is, or should be. Not every boxer looks the same, first, so what, to you, is a "boxer's physique"?

Go watch some fight films from around 1970. You'll see their physiques in Fat City aren't far off. Boxers steered clear of weights until the late 80s. (I'm guessing at what your criticism actually is).

And The OP is a dope. Or a troll.

Love it.

Yeah, FAT CITY is a joke... to those who can't recognize a masterpiece when they see one. I pity you and those of your ilk.

I think we can all agree that this movie has an awesome score, and it works as a showcase for a pre-Dude Jeff Bridges, but that's just me.
