Amazing!!!!

Rating: 10/10 (8 October 2005)

Excellent movie! So good I felt I had to write and let people know. Initially, thought a movie about boxing would bore me to death. Got 5 mins into the story, and was in floods of tears throughout the whole movie. Is ideal for both women and men - women have the family, sensitive side to enjoy, men - the boxing action. It was also fascinating to see what actually went on during the Great Depression! Makes you value what you have now. Amazing to see what went on in Central Park, NY City.
Will be watching again this evening to enjoy yet again the fantastic acting skills of Russell Crowe and Rene - truly had no idea he was such a great actor...will definitely be recommending this movie to friends on Monday.
