Rating: 10/10 (4 December 2018)

I watched this movie because it was next on the list. The filmmaker is telling the story of James Braddock's come back. He got old and many thought he'd stop fighting. James came was the underdog in many fights but manage to surprise everyone. The special effects and make up are very well done. They aren't excessive at all. This can be used to determine it was a pretty recent movie. I don't know anything about boxing legends so i can't say anything there. As for the great depression portion of the movie; there's nothing that makes me question the accuracy. I haven't seen any other boxing movies and i don't remember any movies that showed how bad the depression was. The lady literally stole a steak from a fancy place because they couldn't afford any food. I liked the comeback story. How even with a broken hand he kept working and fighting. I also like how a steak was stolen. I didn't like how the earlier scenes seemed to cut to different things instead of flowing. All in all it was a great movie. I don't care about seeing more movies with the actors but i would like to see more from the director.
