heavy-weight fighting meets heavy weight acting

Rating: 10/10 (22 May 2005)

I love films, particularly ones which have great writing, an interesting story and characters that i can care about, connect with and can root for...Cinderella Man is one that fits all my criteria... I can find nothing wrong with this film; it is a true story of a heavy-weight boxer who touched and inspired people; it has great heart, very well - think Oscar sweep - acted, beautiful production design/cinematography, brilliant editing...it truly depicts big city life during the Great Depression...you feel you are there in the fight scenes, i can't wait to see it again...the best film i have seen all year...
