This is a truly great film. Russel Crowe, Rene Zellweger and Paul Giametti were all fabulous. Russell Crowe is the best actor of our time. I am not a boxing fan, but I was so engrossed by the character of the Cinderalla Man that I was totally involved in every punch. I didn't know how the story would end, so I had the added thrill of suspense during the final fight.Beautiful - BlueIam
From the beginning of the movie, one would think that the movie is all about boxing. You couldn’t be more wrong; I viewed the movie as our everyday way life. We have our ups and downs. It is how we handle the turbulence of our daily existence that either puts us on top or brings us way down.
The movie just doesn’t show how a man that down on his luck can bounce back up again, its shows how the other lives around him can be affected by his actions. The characters were beautiful and lovable. The story flowed beautifully from beginning to end and the directing were top notch in my book.
I’ve seen the movie several times now and I know how it will end and yet still I am captured by the action and the drama that’s within. Definitely and must see….A real story about a very real man. - Mic-
I can't stop telling everyone I know that they MUST see this movie. This was one of the most captivating films I have ever seen. I was drawn into the movie immediately, then it took me on an emotional rollercoaster I have never experienced with any film before. The cinematography was excellent, the story was very well told, and the acting was superior. After viewing this film, I did some research on James Braddock, and apparently so did the writers! I was very impressed with the accuracy of the storyline, even Braddock's Official website supports the movie. If you are looking for a great story that will keep you on the very edge of your chair, this is a must see.
