Inevitably Predictable And Boring

Rating: 2/10 (12 October 2008)

Why, can you tell me, the Hollywood production may be so boring? If there is a movie about any sportsman, then the film starts usually with him being OK, then, all of a sudden (irony included) he gets into a deep, bottomless pit of a despair or problem, then slowly he starts his way up and on. Cinderella Man is exactly this kind of a movie. Apart from brutally detailed boxing scenes, this is a sweaty, sugary sweetish family drama of a hero rising back from bad to good. The plot is so predictable that we could comment what was going to happen 10 minutes prior to the very event. The performance of Russell Crowe is never more terrible than here, as well as Renee Zellwegger is so pathetic with all her sad and happy faces she tries to put on from time to time. Bad, insipid, pathetic, miserable ruin of a film
