well made

Rating: Null/10 (12 August 2002)

this movie is a very good adaptation of the life of the most talented controversial and important sporting hero of modern times.
a lot of people probably didn't like the movie because they we're expecting to see non stop action,but the movie deals with the most important parts in the life of this legendary boxer.
when the fight scenes do come though they are awesome,particuarly the first fight against sonny liston.will smith plays ali better than anyone else probably could.
although a bit long and drawn out at times this movie is still enjoyable if only to serve as a reminder of how important and iconic a sportsman ali was,quite simply the greatest boxer that has ever lived and probably the greatest their ever will be.
