Not a fan


Am I the only one who wasn't a big fan to this movie? I don't know why, but I just wasn't.

I gave this film a thumbs up but some of the performances were grating on the nevers to be sure. Bale was awful.

Bale was awful?? No way. I couldn't believe he WASN'T actually a crack head. He is probably one of the best actors out there but that's my opinion.

i think all boxing movies get mixed responses,look at the rocky films,and the champ,i saw a film in the mid 90's called gladiators,i thought it was good but my mates thought it was s h i t.

I have a built-in bias against sports films because I generally find sports boring, and I never care about the inevitable finale: "Seconds to go, everything's riding on it, will they win or lose, yes of course they'll win in almost every film except "The Wrestler" and "Dodgeball: A True Underdog story." But this had enough going for it outside of boxing to keep me casually entertained until that inevitable finale.

6/10 stars from me, which means I wasn't a big fan of this film either.
