Boring, Dragged Out, Lackluster Plot

Rating: 6/10 (19 August 2016)

I'd give this a 5.5 if I could but am feeling generous. I expected big things from the movie, and was very disappointed. After the first 30 minutes I was wondering when the plot was going to go somewhere or if I should just give up on the film. I stuck it out but it didn't get much better.
Stallone and Jordan do a good acting job, but it's not enough to save a dragged out, pretty predictable story. The love interest doesn't come across strong - she is no Adrian.
The build-up to the final fight is just typical boxing movie - see some drills, but nothing unique in the training scenes - just some rehashes of Rocky drills and no catchy events.
After writing this review, I should probably rate it even lower!
