Entertaining but empty

Rating: 6/10 (24 March 2003)

I think Will Smith is a bit vacant in the role of Muhammad Ali, not so much because of his acting ability, but there seemed to me not to be that much acting in the script. Most of the time he is either womanizing or staring vacantly into the air. This is supposed to show his look on the world, how it affects him, but it doesn't come across very well in my opinion. Not a bad movie though, the fighting scenes are very well made.
