Million Dollar Excellence

Rating: 10/10 (29 November 2006)

I originally started watching Million Dollar Baby because I was bored and had time to kill before work. One of the best movies I have seen in my lifetime. The characters are so rich and complex that you can't help but fall in love with them. Swank was amazing and she deserved the Oscar, no doubt about it. There are very few movies that I insist my husband watch but this is one of them. I cried for the last 30 minutes of the movie and did not like the way it ended not knowing what happened to Frank. If you have the chance to see this movie, toss out all preconceived notions about Swank and Eastwood, if you have them, and just watch the story unfold. I was shocked, amazed, and saddened. Excellent movie.
