An absolutely terrific film!!!

Rating: 10/10 (14 March 2005)

I love Clint Eastwood. He is a genius and definitely put together a masterpiece this time. This film is full of realism and drama, yet it is able to captivate the audience and reel them in for an emotional ride. Hiliary Swank owned the screen and owned this role. Bravo! Oh, and it was great to see Morgan Freeman finally put the jinx behind him and bag a Best Supporting Actor Oscar. Plot...The movie is basically about a woman who dreams of becoming someone and the road she takes to get there. She ironically teams up with the manager who is notorious for not getting to the big match and gains inspiration from a washed-up fighter who has resorted to cleaning and living in a gym. How does she make her dreams come true. You'll have to see and find out.
